Normal to feel pms (or in my, case withdrawal bleed symptoms) even before you finish a pack of coc pills? no late/missed pills +still a few pills left
A doctor has provided 1 answer
During placebo: When you switch to the last 7 pills (placebo) then there is a hormone withdrawal. This can trigger PMS for some. Some brands are made with 24 active and only 4 inactive to help with PMS. Consider changing to this or to an extended cycle or continuous birth control pill.
