I just started yasmin this month. I
started my period on a saturday morning so
I took the pills then, opting for a direct
start rather than a sunday start...It was
pretty close anyway. I take my pills in
the morning when I wake up, between 9:00
and 11:00 each day. I've never missed a
pill, though one day I forgot to take it
for a few more hours, not until that
evening...Less than half a day late. The
instructions say that if you miss one
pill, you don't need backup
contraception.
Anyway, I had sex for the first time on my
third week of the pill. We used condoms
of course and they didn't break or leak as
far as I can tell. I wasn't late with a
single pill that week and the one pill
that I was half a day late with was a
whole week before that, if not more (can't
remember the exact day). There shouldn't
be any issues.
Now i'm on my first week of placebos ever.
It's the end of my 4th sugar pill day and
I still haven't had my period. Most
people I know don't start until the middle
of the week and that was today for me. I
still haven't had my period. My normal
cycle is very off...I have my period every
2 - 2 1/2 months, when i'm not on birth
control. Since this is my first month on,
it's only been three weeks since my last
period. I read that sometimes on yasmin
people will miss their first period, when
they first start out.
Should I be worried or is it normal for
this to happen, given my completely
abnormal cycle. I can't think of any
reason i'd be pregnant...No breaking, no
missed pills. Do you think it will come
by the end of the week and, if not, that
i'm just one of those people who miss
their first period?

I think you'll be fine. If your period
was irregular before then it might take a
while for the pill to make it normal..

That's what I figured. I could never
even begin to predict my normal
period...It was so off...And since it's
been such a short time since my last
period...I figure that it's probably just
taking awhile to get all...Regulated.
I'm still worried though...You
know...Since I did have sex and all. But
I really didn't miss a pill and I used
extra protection...Hopefully it's fine.
