Hi,

I understand your concerns.

Following is my reply:

1) You are right.

2) Switching new pill causes increase in hormonal levels and might delay the periods.

3) Wait for the periods and you might get it in a week.

Let me know if you need anymore help.

This is normal

Hi,

Delay for few days is common while on OC pills. This could also be related to new events in life, stress, travelling , exams etc.

You can wait for another week for periods to start.
