Yaz, period comes after 4 sugar pills and my body cramps more

I've been on Yaz 2 months now and it seems to be working pretty well for me. The only issue is that my period starts after the sugar pills on the day of when I start taking the hormone pill again. I never suffer from period cramps or pains but I have noticed this has started since being on Yaz.

Could my period starting after the sugar pills mean that my body is cramping more as it has to work harder to expel and shed? Has anyone else had this issue before?

When I've been on other pills in the past they have had 7 days for the period and it usually comes on day 4.

Any advice or insights welcomed! Would love to see what I can find on here before contacting my GP. Thanks!
