period start time is strange...
| Fri, 07-02-2004 - 3:15am |
i'm on mircette, this is my 3rd or 4th cycle and each time i've had my period it has started on the last day of my last week of the pack or the first day of the next pack. right now i have 2 more days of my pack left and again my period hasnt started yet. shouldnt it begin on the 2 placebo days of the pack??

Typically, when on OCs a user’s period will begin on the 2nd to 5th placebo pill (the green and yellow pills in Mircette). However, that is not always the case as the users body responds to the particular hormones in the pill she is taking. If you are on your 3rd or 4th cycle on Mircette I might give it another cycle or two to see if that is where your period will stay. If it does and you want your period to come during your placebo week then you might ask your doc about a pill change. Let us know what you decide, ok?
Good luck,
Jill
