I was about to post the same question. I'm a Sunday starter, so I should be getting it Wednesday, but instead I got it yesterday (Saturday), but I had missed Thursday and Friday. Is that the reason for the early period, and if so, does that mean I wont get it this coming Wednesday when I am supposed to get it?
Because estrogen and progesterone hormone levels control the female cycle and the pills operate by "skewing" the cycle.
You should take the birth control pill as directed regardless of bleeding. Take a pregnancy test if you missed pills in the previous cycle.
A normal menstrual cycle - especially if you are on birth control pills.
You can switch birth control pills at any time in your cycle as long as you take an active pill on the assigned days.
When taking the birth control pills you still have a monthly cycle. That is what the different color pills are for in your pack. So that you still have your cycle every month.
NO
Birth control has many benefits. The two big ones are to Prevent pregnancy and to control your menstrual cycle.
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.
The average menstrual cycle length is 28 days - but everyone is different. As a note while on birth control pills you don't have a menstrual cycle, the pill works by suppressing your menstrual cycles so you no longer ovulate.
If you take a pill , then it may affect your cycle next month.
Yes it can, but not for long. Birth control pills have hormones in them. Also after quitting birth control pills/patches you have a higher risk of getting pregnant!
Yes
