When is the best time to start bc pills? my period ended on the 23 of december.

Weekend of period : It's usually recommended to start the birth control pill on the weekend after your period starts so the first saturday or sunday right after the first day of your period. It looks like this cycle you're a bit late to start. I suggest starrinf after your next period.
