Is it okay that i usually have my period on or after the last day of the inactive pills? I started taking the pills the Sunday after my period. This was like, 4 months ago. My period still happens towards the end of the last week of the pack, and runs into the beginning of the first week of the next pack of active pills. Is this okay? Is that changing the effectiveness of the pills? I'm really worried. Sad

It is not a problem. Some women will experience it this way. It does not mean anything about the effectiveness of the pill. There is no rule to say when you will get your period.normally it happens some time during the inactive week. As long as it forms a pattern, you can be prepared and manage it.
