If you are taking your birth control pills correctly and consistently, then the risk of pregnancy is low. Several things can affect the timing or your period. Stress, illness, changes in exercise or sleep, can all alter your menstrual cycle. Your period may come earlier or later than usual. It may be lighter or heavier than usual, depending on your hormones. Since the birth control pills help thin the uterine lining, some women may skip a period once in a while.
Vaginal infections like bacterial vaginosis or yeast, can cause itching and burning. Intercourse may irritate the vagina even more. If your symptoms continue, make an appointment with your doctor or clinic for an infection check.
