If I'm not good at taking my pills will I still have withdrawal bleeding?

Question

I take them late, sometimes miss one completely. There are two inactive pills then five after that with estrogen only-- when will i start bleeding? the first day of the inactive pills or the estrogen pills? And if I don't is that normal if I haven't been taking them perfectly?

Answer

Sounds like you're on the same birth control as me. I usually start bleeding after 1-2 estrogen only pills. You really need to try to take it at the same time everyday and you MUST take a pill everyday. Try setting an alarm on your phone that repeats everyday to remind you. Also think about what time of day you are most likely to remember, for me it's first thing in the morning but some people find it easier to take at lunchtime or before bed.

Answer

What is normal is getting pregnant....if you have not been taking your pills the same time everyday your body is very confused I do not know what it will do.
