Curiosity

I had just started Tri Sprintec for my acne. I was previously on Ortho Tri cycle lo. Once I finished my period on previous birth control I visited the doctor days later. They prescribed me the Tri sprintec and began taking it on that Sunday. My boyfriend and I are sexually active. Technically I should have started my period last week. Is it normal that I'm three days late on my period?

So, there was a few days break, between when you finished the one brand and started the next?

If so, your doctor should have instructed you to take the new one for 7 days, before having unprotected sex. If you didn't take any contraceptives for a few days, and then you didn't start the new one while you were on your menstrual cycle, you may not have been protected against pregnancy and you should consult your doctor for a pregnancy test.
