Well, thats weird.  My doctor told me to take my pill starting on the day i start my period.  Go to your doctor and just ask him to explain it again to you and make sure you clearly understand.  Dont have sex if you are not sure you're taking it right!

If you start taking the pill on the first day of your next period, you are safe to have sex after 7 days. For the first seven days, if you are having sex, use a condom. Although you're less likely to have sex then as you'll be on your period.

same thing happened to me, as soon as you stop taking the birth control for 5 days have a normal period. wait until it stops before taking the pills again. see a doctor if it doesnt work

I think your cycle is longer than 28 days and I think that your menses should start before you decide which answer to pick as the best.  You will probably start somewhere around the 22-23rd.

Your period may be lighter and slightly irregular with the birth control, review your medication insert, if you have further questions, consult the prescribing physician/and/or your pharmacist.  Don't forget to use back up protection like a condom during the first 30 days of starting the pill.  Also while on the pill, be sure to use a back up method of contraceptives when taking an antibiotic as it will weaken the effect of your birth control pill.  Good Luck

You should take the first day of your period.

once you get on the pill you can't miss any other than the one to get your normal period. If you miss you will get your period until its done. if it last more than a week i would talk to your doctor

START TAKING BIRTH CONTROL. THAT HAPPEN TO ME AND I NEVER KNEW WHEN MY PERIOD WAS GOING TO START AND I DIDN'T LIKE NOT KNOWING WHEN I WAS GOING TO START BLEEDING. BIRTH CONTROL TELLS ME THE EXACT DAY I WILL START AND IT DOES EVERY TIME.

It can come as late as the last sugar pill or the first days of getting back on the active pills. If it persists, see your doctor. The longer you are on the pills, the shorter and lighter your cycle will be.

If you are taking a 21 day birth control pill, do not stop for 7 days, but start a fresh pack.  If you are taking a 28 day pill, the last 7 days are inactive pills; take the first 21 days, discard the last 7 and start a fresh pack.  \n\nHowever, you can only do this with monphasic birth control pills (ie: pills that have the same dosage daily).

You may not get them to be "exactly" on the 3rd, but if you take birth control pills and time it right (calculate a start time that you will take sugar pills  give or take a week before) you can get pretty close.  I wouldn't recommend too much tampering with your body's time of the month, but this is a way to help you have more control.  Talk to your doctor.

First and foremost, use protection, you're not safe from pregnancy anymore.\n\nThere is no need to worry if you don't get your period the time you expect it.\n\nThe bleding you get when you stop taking your pills at the end of the month (or in some cases, you take the pills that contain nothing but harmless lactose) is not your period, it's a bleeding your body initiates when (misled by the hormones you take) what it thinks is a pregnancy ends.\n\nAfter you stop taking your pills, your body has to start producing its own ovocytes and its own hormones. This may take a while, but doesn't have to. Don't take any risks.

Absolutely not- That is just the day to make it standard for women.  You can start any day you like as long as you take your pill the same time everyday.  Remember you may have break through bleeding if you interrupt your cycle at an odd time, but it isn't harmful to your body.  The breakthrough bleeding may only be some spotting for the first month or so....... A lot of brands of pills actually come with stickers to change your start day....Just don't forget!!!! and remember 2 important things....don't use generic and if you take your pill at a different time each day it decreases its effectiveness!!!!!! Good luck..........

My suggestion is the same as the others. The only thing I want to add is if you think you could be pregnant, take a test. And schedule an appointment asap so you can get on a birth control pill to help you regulate your cycle.

Birth control pills must be taken each day at about the same time to be effective and prevent pregnancy. The best time to take them is at night, before you go to bed

Hi hun. I'm not a doctor but a nurse. The brown bloo9d is just old blood left over from last period and will come out sometimes when a new period starts. Make sure you take your BC every day at the same time! This DOES help regulate you. You are supposed to start your period on the "sugar" pills but if it's sooner it is okay. You are fine. If it continues then I would see your doctor but as of now you have nothing to worry about! Good Luck!
