Please check: Birth Control Pills have a specific recommendation for starting after a normal menses. If you did not follow the directions, you are not protected from pregnancy, and you may have a normal period in the first month.

No: However this could be related to your body's adjustment to pills,assuming you have taken them correctly.Keep on taking pills and observe what happens over next 2cycles.if it's related to hormonal adjustments in your body it should prove.
