Okay,
I've been on BC for about 4 months now and every period has been right on time or a day before and only lasts 5 days.
I don't know why but my period started two weeks early, or so....and I don't know why it did that. I haven't skipped any pills or taken them at a different time. I had breakthrough bleeding the 1st month and haven't had a problem since, but is this just my period or another breakthrough? Will it last more than 5 days? No sign of stopping yet and it's going to be the 6th day tomarrow. I have been under stress lately.

Yes, I've taken medicine. I've been sick with a cold and took cold meds and sudefed. But stopped taking it now.

Have you taken any antibiotics? They can mess up your cycle when you're on BC. (That's what my doctor told me anyway).

BC changes horomones in your body so your body believes it is already pregnant and that is why you always flush a new egg any way it is probably too many horomones and your body needs to readjust besides eating birth controll for long periods of time can become a hazard to your body.

this happened to me when i was on bc pills. the ob said that it meant that the hormone level/pill wasn't right for my body and she switched it. i finally found a good bc pill w/a higher dose of hormones that stopped my sometimes erratic periods.

Stress can really mess you up. If it doesn't stop in the next couple of months, you may need to change your BCP.
