Early period on the pill - Birth Control Message Board

Ive been on the pill for a little over 3 months now and I got my period 2 days early. Now Im confused as to when I should start my new pill pack. I am a sunday starter usually. Today is Saturday I just finished a full pill pack today and I just got my period. I was suppose to get it on Monday. So now do I just start up a new pill pack tomorrow and not take the sugar pills for the week? Im so confused and is this normal to get your period early while on the pill? I thought the pill was suppose to make your period on time every time. I have not missed any pills since I have been on this, and I always take them on time.... Im freaking out here.

Just continue taking your pills exactly on shedule. Nothing to worry about

Take the sugar pills as usual and then start your new pack when you are supposed to. While the pill does keep you pretty regular, its not impossible for you to have early or late periods. The best thing for keeping yourself pretty regular is to not change your pill schedule. And you are new to this pill - 3 months isn't long, so your body is still adjusting to it. Don't worry - you aren't going to mess your body up in any way!
