Question about the pill

I'm on the mini pill and I'm on the fourth day of the sugar pill. Shouldn't I have gotten my period by now? I'm freaking out and so is my DH!

Re: Question about the pill

  • Are you BF?  Your period may not return for awhile or until you wean.  Maybe invest in some dollar store tests to ease your mind each month.

  • Yes I'm BF. so even though I'm on the pill I wouldn't get my period? I feel like an idiot for asking that.

  • while on the pill, you don't get a true period, you get a withdrawl bleed. Since you are BF I am not sure how that works.. I would take a test.

    Are you taking it at the exact same time every day?

  • I bf my first and was on the mini pill. I didn't get my period for 7 months after he was born even on the pill.

  • I thought the mini pill didn't have a sugar pill - just continuous hormones. Maybe I misunderstood?

    I think it has sugar pills because there is a big circle with pills and then a mini circle with 7 pills.

    We must be on different brands - I just looked at mine and there is no difference between any of the pills. The packet insert says each of the 28 pills contain the same amount of hormone. I am taking Errin, the generic for Micronor

    ETA: Just re-reading your post - are you on the regular birth control pill or mini pill?
