Just started taking birth control for the first time 2 days before i was supposed to start my period. i am now 3 days late. could my bc be the cause?

Took it wrong: You should never take the pill before you get you period. You need to know you not pregnant before you start. The pill of course may have stopped period from coming. The vast majority of people who get pregnant on the pill do so because of dosing mistakes.
