You should start the new pack on schedule regardless of the presence or absence of bleeding. Take a pregnancy test if you're having symptoms of pregnancy or have missed any pills. Missing a period on Birth Control is a possible side effect. If it repeats and you find it troublesome, talk to your health care provider about a possible prescription change.

You missed your period and you just started taking the pill last week and you should have got it then you have been more tired with back pains If i am pregnant could the pill hurt the baby?
Firstly back pain is not a usual early pregnancy symptom. If you are pregnant, taking the pill will not harm the baby in any way. When you first start taking the pill, you should wait until you have your period and start your first pill on that first day.
Did not finish pill pack when do you get your period?
you can start taking another pack even if you're not through with the first one you can start taking the first white pill from the new pack on the first day of your period and disregard the remaining red/brown pills that you took.
Can you skip a week on the pill and then start taking it the following week and get your period a week after your sapose to?
If you do this then you put yourself at risk of pregnancy
Can you miss a period when you start a new pill pack a week late?
you take the pill for 21 days and then stop taking it for 7 days. and in them 7 days you shall have your period. however, this is not a true period. then you repaet the process
I started taking birth control when i wasnt on my period will it still work?
I started one week late, taking the pill.. I had unproctected sex during the first 6 days.. as I was told that you can't get pregnant the first 6 days after your period.. so I started the pill the following Sunday & continue to have unprotected sex... Can I get pregnant???
What are the green pills and does your period start on the green pills?
If you are talking about the last week in your pill pack, yes, you are supposed to start you period that week. I don't know what they are made of, but they are often called sugar or inactive pills. They aren't always green though. It depends on the kind of pill you have. If you are talking about another week, I don't know what they are made of either, but you aren't supposed to start your period until the last week of your pill pack. Please be aware that not everyone starts their period during the sugar pills, especially when you first start taking the pill. So if you have been taking your pill perfectly, every day no fail and at approximately the same time, chances are you are not pregnant. My first month on the pill I didn't get a period at all and freaked out but the test was negative, the following month I got my period on the third week and it stopped before the sugar pills. Many times it's just your system adjusting to the hormones.
If your period is a week early on the pill should you continue taking extra pills?
Yes take a pill once every day at the same time. Even if your period starts before you get to the end of the pill pack. This is normal. Do not stop taking your pills or you could get pregnant.
Can you still take your pill as usual even though your period is a week late?
Yes, many women stop menstruating while taking the pill.
Could you be pregnant from pre-ejaculate fluid if you took the morning after pill a day later and got your period on time within a week or is it implantation bleeding?
depends how long the period lasted. but this exact thing happened to me, and i am not pregnant. when you obtained the pill they should have told you that about 80% of women get their period within one week of taking the pill/the expected period.
Can taking the pill a week after your period delay your next period or could I be pregnant?
Either one could be true. Take a pregnancy test to find out.
If you are on a 6 week cycle instead of a 3 week is there more of a chance of becoming pregnant if this is the first time you have used the pill to skip a period?
Skipping a period by taking two cycles back to back does not increase the risk of pregnancy. If anything, it decreases the risk.
How long do your periods stay on for when taking the pill?
about 5-7 days depending on how many pills of the period week you take.
