Hi, i've recently started birth control.
My boyfriend and I waited until I was on
the last day of my colored pills (before
the sugar pills) to have sex. We used a
condom, and we are almost 100 percent
certain that nothing leaked. Being the
worry wart that I am, I should receive my
period with in the next two days. But
my question is, can you start ovulating
again before you've had your period? Do
I have to wait until I get my period next
month to be sure nothing happened? Or
am I just worrying too much?
Help!!!?

The birth control pill will stop you from
ovulating all together so you get your
period once a month but no egg is
released. If you just started you can
have your period at just about any time
during your placebos.. Even later. It
will take a few months for your body to
regulate with the pill. I usually would
get mine on the 3rd or 4th day of the
placebo pill. If you've been taking the
pill every day, I wouldn't worry too much,
but since you did wait 3 weeks i'd say you
are pretty well protected.
