Well, since your period will begin because you stopped the pills, wait for the period to end (or wait 7 days after your last dose) and begin a new pack. Throw the old pack away.

With the traditional birth control pill you take a cycle of pills every day for 21 days and then 7 days of sugar pills. In the 7 days of the sugar pills you have a period. Today, there are pills that skip the 7 days of pills and you stay on pills for 3 months and then after the cycle of 3 months you have a period. In both cases after the period you start a new cycle of pills.
Hi, Your period will usually occur during the period you take the non-active pills or have a break from taking your pills. The break lasts for 7 days and your period will occur any time during the 7 days.
If you have been having your period for 20 days PLEASE consult a doctor immediately!
No you have no reason to be worried. You may have a period once you get to the inactive pills, you may have some break through bleeding before your period. All of this is normal and your periods will become very regular and possibly lighter after a couple months on the pills.
Hi, When the pack has finished or the active pills, then you should get your period. After 7 days you restart a new pack of pills.
Yes, normally birth control pills will reduce the number of days of bleeding.
Yes. The sugar pills do nothing but keep track of your days.
pregnancy tests will only detectafter 5 days of your missed period
hi. My sugar pills start on a Wednesday and I usually get my period that Friday. Then it continues until Tuesday the next week.
If you took the birth control pill as prescribed, there was no need to take the morning after pill. Pregnancy is possible, but not likely.
Its different in everyone. But usually anytime within the 7 day period and sometimes on the 1st day you start taking the pills again.
