No Period First Month of Birth Control?

Jordan

Hi everyone!

So I started taking the pill about three weeks ago (this is my first time being on the pill in about two years, my last birth control hospitalized me multiple times.) I haven’t started the last row of pills yet, or the “placebo pills,” but I’m almost done with the third row of pills. As of right now my period is 7 days “late,” however I don’t know if this is just cause of the birth control or if I’m pregnant. Me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex a couple times within the past month, so pregnancy wouldn’t be a total shock, but I wanted to see what other people had to say about the pill making their period late at first.
