First time experience?

Sarah

I started taking the birth control pill this week and im on day 6, i started taking it the day after i started my period (doc at planned parenthood said i could start taking it at any point in my cycle) im now on day 7 and im normally just about done but my flow heavier than i normal (dark brown, enough flow to wear a pad)

I was just curious if anyone had similar experiences? What did your period do when you started? Could it be the brand im using?
