  |
|
It's my first month using the pill, I've just started the "inactive pills" (green). I've heard many stories about the pill, good and bad. A few of my friends who have used the pill, effectively, said it doesn't really matter when you take your pill as long as you don't skip one. So I've been rather irresponisible and taken them during scattered hours everyday. Sometimes at 10 am, 4 pm, 9 am, even once at 11 pm, I only took my first couple pills at the same time. My friends said it wouldn't cause anything because I took them on the same day, yet what I've been reading is to have the pill working effectively you need to take the pill at the same time everyday. --Also I've read that your supposed to wait 7 days, or at least use a second form of birth control when you first start the pill. I waited only two and used no other form of birth control, what are the chances of my pills actually working effectively with all that I've done?
My question is, are the pills going to work for me even though I've been taking them incorrectly? And IF I happened to have got pregnant while on the pills will my period still start because of the green pills? |
