periods and the pill

This is my first month take Ortho Tri-Cyclene, and I was under the impression that you got your period after finishing the pack. Well, yesterday was the 4th day that I was taking the inactive pill, and I got my period. Is this normal? When are you normally supposed to get your period???

If Aunt Flo came on your 4th day of placebos then everything should be fine. AF typically shows up on days 2 - 5 of your hormone free week. Her schedule may change one way or the other for the next few cycles until your body adjusts completely to the hormones in your pills. Thanks for posting. Let us know how you like OTC, ok?
Take care,
Jill
