ladies HELP? can I start birth control today or does it have to be a Sunday ?

Question

So my periods have been terrible since I had my daughter earlier this year so my gynecologist put me on birth control.

On the pack it says I have to start on Sunday ? Today is Thursday can I start today or do I have to wait till Sunday ?

Answer

There should be stickers that came with the pack that start with other days of the week.

Answer

Ideally you want to start it on the first day of your period, at least that’s what I remember. And then you change the dates on top with the stickers it should Come with.

Answer

I was told to start it the Sunday after my last period because I was sexually active

Answer

just start today where it says Sunday and take them straight in order. the days will be off but you should be fine as long as you remember to take it.

Answer

I always started my pills the first day of my period, the day of the week is irrelevant. Use a marker cross out the day and start the first day of af, take one pill each day at the same exact time every day or its not effective as a birth control method. Good luck.

Answer

i would just start with thursday that would be your start day

Answer

I just checked my prescription bag and there is no stickers 😩

I read that they ask you to start on Sunday so u won’t have ur period on the weekends?

Thanks for the advice I’m new to taking the pill
