Hello there. Yes a period can be delayed if you have missed some of your birth control pills.
You are suppose to be off of the pill while you have your period. The pills you take during your period are only sugar and do nothing.
You should continue taking the birth control pill daily as scheduled regardless of bleeding.
If this is your first month on birth control and you have not missed any pills, then see your Doctor. If you have missed pills or took too many pills, then this is why your period hasn't arrived. A period not arriving during the first month of birth control is not uncommon and can be due to your body becomming used to the medication or pregnancy. If you had unprotected intercourse during the first month of taking birth control then I would recommend you perform a pregnancy test.
The birth control pill will not stimulate or jump start your period. Talk to your health care provider if your period is more than three months late.
Yes, sometmes when you start birth control you will have break through bleeding and it can tie in with your period since you started the pill during your period.
