Birth Control Question

Unread post by Misstaylorann »

Hi! I have been on birth control for a month and have taken my pill everyday at the same time. I am now on my sugar pills and haven't gotten my period. Should I be nervous? How does getting my period work while I'm on the pill?

Hi misstaylorann,

If you've just started taking the pills this month, it might take some time for your body to adjust it's cycle, so your period might be a little irregular. You can read more about that here:
Combined Oral Contraceptives (The Pill)
And you to whom adversity has dealt the final blow/with smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go/turn to and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain/and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.
