Period on active contraceptive pills?
I am on my second packet of my contraceptive pills. I skipped my period this month because I had something on, but it appears to have just delayed it. I got my period on the active pills, and today is the 7th day. If I still have it tomorrow, I plan on visiting a GP, but I want to know if this had happened to other people.
It's driving me nuts. My periods before only used to be 4-5 days maximum.
Why do you think I got it?

It is likely breakthrough bleeding. It most often happens when you skip periods. Your doctor can help you stop it. A doctor will however more often ask you to wait a while to see if it stops by itself.
Best of luck!
