It may, especially if your periods were irregular before you went on the Birth Control pill. You can expect your period sometime between the regular time and two weeks late. After that, you should be back on track. Take a pregnancy test if you've had unprotected intercourse.

Do you take birth control eventhough you have period?

Yes, birth control is an on going practice, to prevent pregnancy every day. Don't stop taking the pill, as directed by your doctor.


You have been on birth control for 5 months is it safe to purposely skip a period and instead of taking the green pills just going straight to a new pack?

Hello. You can skip a period while on birth control pills but constantly skipping periods via birth control pills, isn't recommended. Skipping a period this once will be fine.


When going off birth control should someone be worried that her period is now 5 days late?

No, when going off birth control your body takes a little bit to get used to it and it is very normal to have irregular periods for awhile.

Definitely. Hormonal birth control, as one of its pleasant side effects, decreases the amount of cramping and the amount and duration of menstrual flow.


Can you take birth control pills after eighteen days of your last period?

yes you can. birth control in any for is going to redirect your cycle to 28 days no matter what. but if you want you period to come 3 weeks from your regular period( when you are on birth control you will not have a period, it is called withdrawal bleeding. because you don't ovulate while on birth control. withdrawal from the hormone causes the bleeding.) so actually you can choose when you"period" comes. hope this helps!!!


Why have been on my period for about 11 days and i missed 3 pills for your first week is that the reason?

Skipping pills can cause the progestin levels to drop low enough to cause a period. If missing pills is a common occurence for you, the pill is not going to have the birth control effectiveness that you are seeking, and you should consider other methods.


Is it weird if you don't have your period the next month but you had no sexual activity?

Not necessarily, especially if you are still going through puberty. It takes a while for a woman's period to regulate. High stress levels and changes in diet can be a cause of missed period as well as starting birth control pills. I wouldn't worry about it.


Is there any way you can make your period come sooner or make it last for a shorter amount of time?

Hello The only way to make your period arrive earlier than usual for you is by taking birth control pills and by missing some pills or you can miss a period completely by continuing to take birth control pills instead of going onto the sugar pills. But you can only do this when you've been on birth control pills for about two months because the first month will be all over the place. Birth control pills do make your period lighter, less painful and can make your period shorter.


My last shot was in February for birth control my period came on the last days of June I had no period the whole month of July and then my period came on August the 16th what does that mean?

Irregular periods are often perfectly normal, but not always. If you have not been using another form of birth control, and you have been sexually active, it is wise to have a pregnancy test. Spotting similar to a period can happen in pregnancy. Did you have regular periods before going on the shot? If so, your period will usually normalize after a while. See a physician to be certain of the cause of your irregular periods.


When a woman period doesnโ€™t stop. Those it mean they have different partner?

Birth control. Going on or off hormonal birth control can cause your periods to become irregular. Some types of birth control can also lead to occasionally missing a period or stopping your periods altogether. Your body should adjust within three to six months after starting or stopping hormonal birth control


Is it normal to get your period after stopping birth control and then not having it for a month and half?

On hormonal birth control your menstrual cycle is suppressed, as you no longer ovulate you no longer menstruate, instead women get a withdrawal bleed due to the drop in synthetic hormones when going from active to inactive pills or stopping the pills. If you come off hormonal birth control then it can take a few months for your menstrual cycles to return thus it can cause irregular or absent bleeding.


Can your breasts get smaller after stopping on the pill?

It is not that they are getting smaller, it is that the breasts are going back to their normal size. Birth control can sometimes make the breasts swell, just like right before your period. They will not be any smaller then before birth control.
