A member asked:
Started active birth control pills 4 days early (only took 3 inactive pills), now cramping. is this bad? is the risk of pregnancy higher?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: You are likely still protected from pregnancy. Try to get yourself on a routine pill cycle. If you have any concerns about an atypical cycle, do a pregnancy test. All the best.
