Hello doctor!
I just finished the first pack of the last cycle of the old month. So how long do I have to stop before I can start taking the second pack of my birth control pills? Since it's the first time I've used it, I still don't understand it. Please guide me, thank you.

Hello doctor. If I haven't finished the 28-day pill pack but have my period, should I start taking a new pack on the first day of the cycle? Looking forward to consulting your doctor. Thank you.

Hello doctor. Please tell me how to use the daily contraceptive pill for 28 pills. Take the first pill at the beginning of your menstrual cycle. If I have it again next month, do I still take the first pill of the beginning of my period? The problem that I drink as above, is there any problem with the last 3 pills, doctor? Looking forward to consulting your doctor. Thank you.

Hi!
Let the daily pill come out Effectively effective in preventing pregnancy, women need to pay attention to daily use
For a pack of 21 pills How to take the first daily pill pack: 1 pill/day, from the 1st day of the cycle menstruation, continuously for 21 days, if menstruation occurred within 5 days: take the first pill on day 5 and continue 1 pill per day until the pack is finished, use a condom or abstain from intercourse for the first 7 days of taking the pill. How to take the second pack of daily oral contraceptives: Take a break of 7 days after finishing the first pack, start taking the second pack regardless of the day on which menstruation occurs. For a pack of 28 pills For a pack of 28 pills, in addition to 21 pills containing hormonal contraceptives, there are also 7 placebo pills containing sugar or iron,... but not hormone ingredients. The reason there are 7 more placebo pills to help users take the medicine continuously, avoiding forgetting the medicine. Usage is the same as the blister pack of 21 tablets: Take the first pill on the first day of the menstrual cycle, 1 tablet per day until the end of 28 tablets of the first blister, then switch to the second pack... and so on. Continue drinking from one pack to another. Whether you take the pill in this second pack will not depend on whether you have your period or the date of your period.
