What Are The Side Effects Of Emergency Contraceptive Pills?

So I had been taking birth control pills for about 9 months, and then due to medical issues I had to be taken off of the pill. Now that I m well again, my doctor said it was alright for me to go back on the pill. However, I m not sure when I am able to start taking a new pack. I have been off the pill for a little less than a month. I know that usually, I should start again during my next period, but I have heard that after getting off the pill, it may take months for your period to come back. I would like to start taking it again as soon as possible! Can I just start a new pack whenever I want since I haven t been off of the pill for that long? Or do I need to keep waiting until my period? Thanks!!!

hello
I understand your problem , you can start birth control pill any time but you have to take precautions while having sex so its better to start pill once your period stars and avoid contact till that time or use condom or emergency contraceptive.
THANKYOU
