Q: 

Is it normal to not come on your period after 3 days after taking the pill?

I have just come back on the pill after having a month or so off it and have not had my period after finishing the pack. It has been 5 days since I finished them. Is this normal?

Hi Anon,

Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community.

Any time you introduce or re-introduce hormones to your system, your body will react. It is common to miss your period or have irregular bleeding/cycle for up to 3 months after you start a birth control pill.

Keep track of your symptoms and consult your doctor if your body doesn't adjust within a normal span of time.

I hope this helps.

Be well,
~Gillette
