Hi Guys


I just need to know..

My period came one day early and I am on birth control

Last month I lost one of my pills so I didn't take it for one day but took the rest of the pack as normal, this month my period had started a day early and I have not missed any of the pills is this meant to happen because I missed on birth control pill or is there something wrong with me


Thank You

Hi avi13,

We can't say for certain why your period arrived one day early, but having it come one day early, even if you're on BC pills, is nothing to worry about. It's not unusual for periods to vary in their arrival times.
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.
