What are the sugar pills for in the birth control pill pack?
The sugar pills are just placebo pills, meaning that they have no intended purpose other than to act as place holders. Because birth control pills are to be taken every day, some women need the placebo pills to keep the routine going. They offer no other purpose.
Can you make your menstrual come by taking the placebo pill if you never been on birth control?
No, the placebo pills are exactly that, placebo. (just sugar pills). It would be like expecting a tic tac to bring on your menstrual cycle. If you are on the pill, the placebo pills will start your cycle because they have no active ingredients. If you think you are pregnant and want your period to come, go to a doctor/do a pregnancy test or take the morning after pill if it's not too late.
Is it OK not be on the sugar tablets for only five days before starting the new pack and not the recommended seven days?
From what I have learned from my physician recently, is that you can only make two choices during your placebo/sugar pill week,You take your sugar pills for the seven days, and menstruation will occur, do not take your sugar pills for the seven days, but you will wait seven days to start your new pack of pills.You start your new pack of pills on the day that you were to start your placebo pills.So to my understanding, you should not start your active pills now, because you will mess up your cycle, and if the pills are not taken properly, everyday and and the same time, you may put your risk for pregnancy.I hope you make the right decision based on the facts that I have told you.
I been on BC for two months on my second month i took all pills until i got to the sugar pills i took two of them sugar pills and didn't finish the last 3 pills sugar pills on the second suga?
You do not have to take the sugar/placebo pills if you feel comfortable doing so, and if you will not forget to start your birth control on the correct day, and if you will not forget what time you are supposed to take your birth control. It doesn't make a difference on how many sugar/placebo pills you take because they do not contain any active hormone ingredients. You are still protected from pregnancy during your placebo week if you take your birth control every day at the same time, and if you have been on birth control for at least 2 months. To be on the safe side wait 3 months, that is personally how long I waited.
Does your period generally come during the week taking the green pills?
Yes, if these green pills represent the placebo/sugar pills, then your period will start during the time you are taking the green pills. If you do not get a period during this week, you should consult with your physician. You may need to take a pregnancy test.
Can you switch the day you start your birth control pills?
Yes, you can. To change the day you start your birth control pills, you will cut short your placebo/sugar pill week or pill free week. For instance, if you normally start the new pack on Sunday and want to start on Wednesday, you'll take your placebo pills on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, discard the old pack, and start the new pack on Wednesday. As long as you don't go more than seven days without an active pill, you will have no interruption in protection.
