A member asked:
When do i resatart my birth control if i am behind a while., do i start the sunday of, or the following sunday for the new pack?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sunday: Best way to start is on the sunday after your period starts (if it starts on sunday, take pill that day). Be sure to use another form of birth control for the first 2 months. Starting in the middle of a pack can wreak havoc with your cycle.
