What could be the cause delayed menses after starting birth control?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bcp: Estrogen and progetogen in the birth control pills can both delay the menses by changing the function of the ovaries and the lining of the uterus. If this is the first it happens, do a pegnancy test to be sure.
