A member asked:

I got birth control pills recently and it says to start taking them the sunday after i start my period, but i havent had a period since january. i have very irregular periods and idk when my next one will be. can i just start taking them now?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

If you are not sexually active then it is ok to start anytime and Sunday is ok simply to remember. If you are sexually active get a pregnancy test and if negative start the ocp packet. Using protection for a week is IMO better as well before having sex
