Hi,
You can start the pill any of the week or as soon as you bought the pill. Take one tablet everyday at the same time. After completion of the pack, periods will occur. After completion of periods, start the drug again. For the first seven days, use another contraceptive method like condoms, until the drug becomes effective.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
