Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Your menstrual cycle starts from the day one of periods and it doesn’t matter how long the bleeding persists. So, you can take the pill on the fifth day, even if your periods lasts for three days.
Wishing you good health.
Thanks.
