I was told to start the Sunday after my period starts, even if I'm still bleeding. And if I were to start my period on a Sunday, then I would take my first pill on that Sunday.
My pills have the day marked next to them as they go around the circle and it starts out with a Sunday...so I believe that is the reason behind what I was told.
