Brief Answer:
Take for three months.
Detailed Answer:
Hi again.
Sorry for late response.
Yes, you have started it right.
You should take next pack after 7 days of completing these 21 tablets, irrespective of whether you get your periods or not.
I would suggest you to take the drug for 3 months for regularisation of your periods.
Hope this helps you.
Feel free to discuss further.
