Hi Autumn, I'm not sure I understand what you mean by starting at the wrong time. If you followed the directions in the birth control packet, you should be fine.

If you're having that much bleeding on the pill, go back to your doctor and ask for a pill change. Sometimes a higher dose pill can solve this. Take care, Maggie
