Ive been on OTC lo for about 7 months now and have been pretty regular after the inital getting used to the pill phase. This month I got my AF about 5 days early. Is that normal for that to happen one month? Could it be because I was about 12 hours late with one of my pills (left it at school when I went back home for the night -- oops). Always use backup incase so that wasn't a problem. Anything thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks a lot!

Did your bleeding start shortly after you were late with your pill? It’s not unusual to have break-through-bleeding a day or so after missing a pill. You body sees the drop in hormones as a signal to begin bleeding. Back-up is always a good idea… never can be too careful.
Good luck

i think different women react different ways to it though and you most likely have nothing to worry about
