A member asked:
I'm a sunday starter and i forgot to start my new package of my birth control pills. its been 4 days now since i was supposed to start. what should do?

Two choices: You could switch to a Wednesday start or start next Sunday. Either way you will need to use a back up form of birth control for this pack due to late start. Try using phone calendar reminder in the future so you don't miss the start of your pills. Or ask your doctor to switch to birth control pill pack that is a 28 cap instead of 21 cap pack so you don't miss taking your pills.
