I've heard of women having their periods for 14 days or more. This isn't uncommon, but you still might want to consult a nurse or doctor.

The female body works to an (approximate) 28 day cycle so do not panic and give it 28 days.
Some types of pill that are supposed to be more natural in their effect do not actually regulate the periods at all.
You really need to read the information leaflet from the pill packet and see if that is any help as well.

it will take a while for ur body to adjust dont worry too much just yet it will settle. if it doesnt by the end of ur first pack go back to doctor as it may be you need a different pill is all. good luck

it may happen while u r getting used to the pill. the adjustment may be in the form of a bleeding, sickness, hurting breasts, low mood and libido. but if the bleeding is too heavy, go to the doctor as soon as possible.

I hate the pill it really messed me up it plays complete havoc with a womans body and it took years to feel right. Get an iud instead.

It could be that your body is just adjusting itself to this new thing. If it keeps on for more that 2 weeks go see a Doctor.

No this is not normal. Perhaps something else is seriously wrong
you should call or go to your Doctor right away.
