I am on Cilest and have been on other 21 day pills, and it has always been day 4 or 5 of my seven day break before I come on, sometimes later HTH.

on the 30day pill did you ever have a period? If not, your body is just adjusting to the new levels of hormones, so could take a few days for AF to arrive. when i was on the 21 day pill (microgynon), it would take a good few days before AF arrived and I would still be ON when i took the first pill of the next packet.

As long as you've not missed any pills, and remember to start taking your pill again on the right day after your pill free week it's very unlikely you are pregnant.

It is normal to start bleeding anything from day 2-7 of the pill free week. It's also ok to start your new packet when you are still bleeding from the pill free week.
