Starting BC Pills...: can lead to some cycle timing irregularity in many patients. I advise my patients that cycles typically normalize after the first 3 packs. It is critical that you remember to take your pill every day, as skipping pills can lead to a more irregular bleeding not to mention pregnancy. So keep taking them and track your cycles. See your GYN if cycles are missed, heavy or overly painful on BC

Below: Your periods should regulate in the next couple of cycles. If not, or new symptoms, then discuss with your DR
