I have to correct some replies you have gotten here, the pill does not regulate your menstrual cycles, it works by suppressing them, the pill essentially tricks your body into thinking it is pregnant which prevents ovulation and makes your cervical mucus thick to prevent sperm from penetrating the cervix.
The pill does suppress menstruation in that the uterus lining does not thicken in the same way, this is to prevent implantation of a fertalized egg. The reason you still get your period is because there is a break period to allow for menstruation to occur.
If you don't know what the pill does or how it works then you really shouldn't be putting it into your body.

It's because despite the fact that you are no longer realizing an egg every month, your body will still prepare for it. When you do not become pregnant, the protective lining is still dispelled. Actually, if you skipped that week of placebos and went straight to the next pack, you wouldn't have your period. They made that new pill where you only get it 4 times a year. If you don't take that break from the hormones, your body is unaware that it's time to dispelled the lining.

Every month, your body builds up a lining around the inner walls of your uterus. If you become pregnant, this lining will become the protective covering for your baby. If you don't, the lining gets "dumped out" and the process starts all over.
The egg may not be reaching the uterus, but the lining comes and goes the same as it did before...

I actual have a chum who went via menopause (ovaries have not have been given from now on eggs) at age 25. that's achieveable, yet unlikely. Your ordinary practitioner can do basic blood assessments to coach your egg reserve and likewise the same old of your eggs. i'd think of that could have been completed formerly putting you on clomid. you're able to have quite a number of large eggs left yet purely have hardship inclusive of your hormones, if so clomid is quite promising!!!

It is not a real period you have when you have your break of seven days. It is what is called a breakthrough bleed caused by the withdrawal of the hormones in your pill for those few days before you start your next pack.

There is a week of pills every month that are Placeabos, meaning they really don't do anything and because they have no effect it causes your period to come.

the pills stops ovulation but not the development of the womb lining to receive the egg. the period is the sloughing of this lining

The pill only regulates your system and prevents you from getting pregnant, it does not stop your period.
