I started my birth control pills one week after my last period ended and started them on a Monday. Is that ok? Will it ruin my cycle? Am I protected?
Do if I started birth control pill on may 3 and have sex on may 9 would I be protected or do I have to wait a week since my period was 2 weeks ago and my doctor just placed me in birth control ?
My period started on Tuesday, and I began a new pack of birth control on Sunday. I heard that if I take the pill within 5 days since the first day of my period, I'm protected immediately. Although, I missed one pill the first week. Am I still safe?
