New to birth control

Allyson • Musician, cinematographer

Ladies I need help! Recently my friend and I were supposed to go to planned parenthood to get birth control together but she ended up changing her appointment to a day i couldn’t go. I personally wanted to get the shot, but since I couldn’t go, she brought me the pills. She didn’t really explain anything , Can someone explain everything to me?Any precautions I should have? What are the green pills?
