Is it normal to get your period after missing two days of the pill?

Answer 1

Not necessarily, since part of Birth Control's use is to regulate the menstrual period it is not uncommon for a disruption to occur after missing a dose. The same problems occur when you stop taking them. Your body has to adjust to a lack of or introduction of chemicals to it. I would not be concerned unless the problem persists. However, if you are very concerned you can call your physician to ease you mind.

Answer 2

Yes this is very normal. This is because the hormones in the pill have reduced from your system, which will put you at risk of pregnancy. You need to be careful for the next 4 weeks and use a condom every time you have intercourse as you are at risk of pregnancy. Continue taking birth control daily and do not miss any more pills. Easier said than done I know, but if you do miss a pill or pills, use a condom for 2 weeks.

Answer 3

If you're taking the combination pill then you don't get a period at all - the pill works to stop your menstrual cycle so you don't ovulate, thus you don't menstruate. The bleeding women get on the pill is a withdrawal bleed caused by the drop in synthetic hormones when going from active to inactive pills or the week break, thus if you miss a pill the drop in synthetic hormones may trigger that withdrawal bleed just like on your week break.

Answer 4

It depends what pills you're talking about.

If talking about the combination birth control pill then you don't get a period at all on these (the whole purpose of these are to stop your menstrual cycles). You get a withdrawal bleed as a result of the drop in hormones when going from active to inactive pills, thus if you miss a pill or more that will cause a similar drop in hormones so in turn cause a withdrawal bleed. If taking hormonal birth control it's really important you learn how it works and what it does to your body.

Answer 5

If you have recently started the pill it is possible to start your period yes. Epecially if you've missed some pills in the previous month or weeks.

Answer 6

Ortho-tri-cyclen has the effect of missed periods within the first 3 months. If 2 or more pills in a row in the first 3 weeks it possible to skip a cycle.

Answer 7

yes but usually if you miss more than one and take them two a day til you catch up you'll spot bleed for a couple of days from my experience.

Answer 8

it's possible that it will be lesser or shorter, so it may just be starting later.

Answer 9

Yes, some women will experience unscheduled bleeding after missing birth control pills.
