Can Contraceptive Pill Be Taken At The Time Of Period?
Can I start birth control right when I get it? I want to be able to start having sex (7 days after the birth control begins) but I m not supposed to get my period for 2 weeks. My doctor told me to start it the Sunday after my period but I don t really want to wait until then. Is it okay to start?

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Yes you can start birth control pill from the first day of period
Continue till you finished pack
It is highly effective in preventing pregnancy
Make habit to take it regularly by putting alarm in mobile
Hope this may help you
Best regards
