No period first month of birth control?

I just started birth control last month. There at no sugar pills on the kind I take & I just got through the week without pills & still had no period. I had some spotting on the second week of the pills. I never missed a pill & took one at the same time every day. I used a condom every time I had sex, but one time it slipped off. But shouldn’t the birth control still protect me? Should I be worried or are my hormones just out of whack?

Answer #1

It is not uncommon to miss your period, have a weird one or some spotting when you first start the pill. If you’re very worried take the test.

Answer #2

Did you ask your doctor how long is takes for the pills to work? Because it usually takes around 3 months for it to regulate your cycle and actually start protecting you from pregnancy.
