Question about early period
| Tue, 09-09-2003 - 12:04pm |
Hello, I have a question. I am on birth control and alway start my period on Wednesday every month life clockwork. This month I started yesterday - Monday. This is very unusual. Could there be a reason for this? Like I said before, I always start on Wednesday. I was not even prepared for it yesterday. Thanks for any help that you can give me.

I really don't think it's anything to worry about. If you start to have break through bleeding, then you might want to think about switching pills. Even though you're on hormones, your body still changes. It can cause changes in how your body reacts to the pill. For example, break through bleeding and a change in your period start date. It does not affect the effectiveness of the pill though!
Have you checked out the birth control board here at ivillage? There's a ton of info there and many smart women!
Take care,
Kristin
