Period on pill??

Hey I'm a 20 yr old female with pcos.
I've changed my pill to Yasmin, because its better for the pcos side effects!
But instead of getting my period two day after starting the sugar pills, it take til the day that I start taking my normal pill again for it to come! This is about a week??
So I'm only having a period for one half to two days max!
I've been taking Yasmin for this is the 4th month!
I used to take microgyn, levlin Ed, and Dianne and would only take couple days usually two for it to come! Now it's taking
7? I'm not understanding!
Can someone please help?
What might this be? Anyone had this happen? Anything will help?
Thanks!

Hello and welcome,
Yasmin pill provides good control over the menstrual cycle in women with PCOS and an improvement in acne. It may happen that your periods may become lighter and may occur late while on Yasmin.It is best to consult your gynecologist and get your doubts clarified. Do keep me posted.
Best luck and regards!
