So I've been on birth control for about 2 and a half years, but about 3 months ago I switched over the a new brand. (not really relavent but oh well)... My periods are super irregular so my packs don't always match up.....my period always exceeds the 5 placebo pills, or I have to go a week or 2 into the next pack before I get my next period. MY QUESTION IS: if my packs don't match up, then does the birth control still work?!
Switching your brand of BC pills could be VERY relevant to this problem. Talk to a knowledgeable professional - OB/GYN doctor or nurse about this. Take Care of yourself, and Good Luck!!
That's weird, your birth control should regulate your period. You should ask your Gyno about it to get a definite answer because that doesn't seem right.
