Switched pills - no period. problem.

Hello Ladies,

I started a new pill pack, Desogen, and finished it last Saturday. (I was originally taking Ortho Tri Cycle.) I switched because my periods were lasting 10 days on Ortho. I took Desogen religiously between the hours of 8pm and 9pm every night. I never missed a day. However, my concern is that I haven't had my period yet. When I was on Ortho, I would get my period on Wednesday. Now that Wednesday is almost past, I am worried. We didn't use backup during the switch form the old to the new pills. I just went from Ortho to my period to starting Desogen. So, I am hoping that my period still may come. Do many people get their periods later in the week? I always thought of it as the beginnning of the week type of thing. Let me know what you think! Thank you!
