Continue taking your birth control pills as scheduled.
What if you get your period while on birth control?
If you get your period while on birth control, you should continue using your birth control as scheduled. Bleeding does not change the schedule for taking your pill or changing your patch or ring.
Should you start taking your birth control while on your period?
Depends. If you just got your birth control and you have never had it before.. What you do is take it the Sunday after your period. For example. You started on a Monday. You ended on a Thursday. You take your birth control that Sunday. If you have taken birth control before.. Yes, you take it. Whether you are on or off.
If you miss your period while on birth control should you wait to start your next cycle until you are sure you are not pregnant or should you continue to take the birth control?
Many women have no period on the BCP. Do not stop taking it as directed.
Does it matter how many days you start taking birth control pills after your period?
Usually, they tell you to start taking your birth control WHILE you have your period, because your protection from getting pregnant starts immediately. If you start taking it at any time while you aren't on your period, then you are not protected for 30 days after you take the first pill. It doesn't matter when you start, but keep in mind to use extra protection for the first month.
Are you not supposed to get a period while on the pill?
You should still get a period each month while on birth control. You will usually start your period during the week that you take your placebo pills, because they have no hormones in them. If you skip the placebo pills and start your active pills instead, this will delay your period.
Is it possible for your period to be late while taking birth control?
Yes, it is possible for your period to be late or stop completely from any hormonal birth control.
Do you use birth control pills while your on your minstrel cycle?

But if you have not started using birth control yet you wait until the Sunday after your period and then take your first pill, this is called "the Sunday start"
