The Pill And On My Period!

by shannonwooten, Aug 11, 2007 08:49PM
I have been on the pill for 5 weeks now. About 3 days ago I forgot to take the pill until 9pm-10pm (I usually take it around noon) I have been on my period for 3 days now. Med to small flow.

I didn't think I was suppose to have a period..... I didn't miss taking the pill, I just took it at 9pm for two nights in a row!!

????
Thanks!

It doesn't matter what time you take it at. I take the pill at random times in the day, whenever I've had a substantian meal, really. (The pill makes you a little queesy if you take it on an empty stomach, apparently)

And, just to be sure, are you certain you're not taking the placebos?

substantial*

Ack, I forgot to mention. One day of missing a pill shouldn't give you your period. I usualy have to miss two or three days of taking the pill before I get my period.

No, not taking the placebo's.  I didn't miss a pill... just didnt take it at the usual time...

my period started just a few days ago (maybe 3) and I have been on the pill for the 5th week now...

Oh ya... light flow.... forgot to mention that its brown blood... like the blood you get before you start your period.... not red fresh blood....  Sort of thick too
