Posted: 06-19-07 11:58am

If your period starts on a tuesday on the previous month,..is it necessarily ot occur on that same day that you have from the previous month...For example The first Tuesday of the week in April and the following month, should it be necessarily be the first tuesday of May?

Does menstruation necessarily come 2 to 3 daysafter tge kast actuve C.O.C. pill or not?

Is there something wrong if my period will come after 3 days or beyond?

I'm not sure what a C.O.C pill is, but if it is a form of horomonal birth control, then this is how things go:

Say you're a sunday start. You've been on the pill for a few months so your period has settled down finally. Personally, I start menstruation 4 days into the inactive pills. So my periods start on a wendsday. But, it's not necessarily the "first wendsday of the month" because pills are only 28 days long, and a month is longer than that.

You will get your period on the same day of the week once it settles down, but you won't get it during the same "week of the month". You'll get it during your inactive week, and when that week falls during a month is going to change every single month.

As I mentioned, my period comes on day 4 of the inactive pills. So yours coming on day 3 or later is not unusual or bad at all.

For future reference, .C.O.C stands for combination oral contraceptive. It refers to birth control pills that have both estrogen and progestin, which is the most common type of birth control pill.

So, Eiri's advice was right on!
