A member asked:
If i was to get on bc and take the pill will it change my period time and will it make it last 7days instead of 3??

Maybe and No: Depending on when you start birthcontrol pills, they may change when your period starts and, when you are on pills, you can shift when your period starts if you need to but only rarely and they are much more likely to make your periods shorter and lighter than to make them longer. Hope this helps.
