A member asked:
How will my period go about if i started birth control for the first time in the middle of my cycle (day 16)? will it be late?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Probably late: expect period during the 4th week of pills. and also would be common to have irregular bleeding for 2-3 packs

End of pack: You will have a period at the end of the birth control pack. The pill is in charge of your menstrual cycles now.
