This is the second month that i have started my period on the last week of my active birth control pills ! i've been on this for 10 months?

Early period: Most likely you need a different combination of the estrogen and Progesterone components of your current pill. Suggest seeing your doctor for a change. The fact that it is now where the first 8 months were fine suggest that there may be a change in you. Weight gain or loss, change in diet or activity, or change in the function of your thyroid need to be considered.
