Starting BC

Am I supposed to start birth control pills on the first day of my period with active or inactive pills? I started with the active pills because I couldn't find any clarification, but now I only have a few pills left, and am on day 18 of my cycle. Will I still get my "period" when I start taking the inactive pills?
