No, taking the first contraceptive pill usually does not cause your menstrual period to disappear immediately. Birth control pills work in many different ways, but one of their goals is to regulate the menstrual cycle. Therefore, it may take some time (usually several weeks) for the body to adapt to the introduction of the drug and the menstrual cycle to be stabilized. It is worth remembering that the effectiveness of hormonal contraception (including birth control pills) depends on their regular use.
During the first cycle of taking pills, the body may need time to adapt to the new hormonal regimen. In some cases, spotting or irregular bleeding may occur, but this usually does not mean the disappearance of menstruation.
If you have concerns about the effects of birth control pills on your menstrual cycle, or if you notice abnormalities in your cycle, I encourage you to consult your doctor. This will allow you to get individual advice. If you do not have the opportunity to visit stationary, I encourage you to use teleadvice, e.g. via the Gdziepolek.pl portal:

The GdziePoLek.pl service also allows you to book Qlaira at a selected stationary pharmacy and collect it upon presentation of a prescription: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/65571/qlaira-tabletki-powlekane/apteki
