starting birth control mid cycle

Last week the Dr put me back on the birth control to start my period again. he told me to start it whenever i wanted to. Now If I had ovualted before i started it would i get a period from that or will i just get it in 3 weeks during the "off" week? also if i do get it before then should i start a new pack when i get the period?

Thanks, I started the nuva ring on saturday so that I will have my period the week before I go to the Dominican...one of the reasons I agreed to go back on b/c so I knew I wouldn't get it on our trip. I will only stay on for probably 2 months and then off for 1 month before ttc

I would have started my pill on a sunday and tried to make it as normal as possible. I went without a period for two months so one sunday I got back on my pills and boom 14 days later I had a period....

I think you will get your period during the "off" week. I don`t believe that you will get it before stopping the pills. After 3 weeks (21 days) of taking pills you should make pause of 7 days and start again doesn`t matter did the bleeding stopped or not yet during that period of 7 days. I hope I was clear and you understood me.
The therapy will normalise the inside wall of the uterus (endometrium) wich can`t be rough after a miscarriage. Wish you best....
