Q: Alesse - First Time User

Hi,

I just started using Alesse a month ago (I'm on my first pack of pills). I'm currently on the placebo week (last 7 green pills). I'm on my 3rd day of placebo pills but my period hasn't arrived. Is this actually normal? I assumed I'd get my period the week when I'm taking placebo/green pills. Or is this happening because my body is trying to adjust to the pills?

Any help is appreciated.... thanks!

It is perfectly normal. I've heard of women getting their period as late as day five, so don't stress; that always makes it worse haha!
