Whenever you need to
If you are trying to get pregnant then you should not take the pill at all.
The strip NC pill is typically taken by placing it under your tongue until it dissolves completely. It's important to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider or the packaging. Avoid eating or drinking for at least 30 minutes after taking the pill to ensure maximum absorption. Always consult your doctor if you have any questions or concerns about its use.
Don't eat for 3-4 hours, then take the pill drinking a lot of water (at least 32 oz). Pee about 3 times and then u should be good and "clean". U have about a 5 hour window after u take the pill.
If the pill is different from the rest of the pills, you should take the pill back to the pharmacy that filled the prescription and show them and ask them. Advise you do not take the pill until you find out what it is and if you should take it.
You can take the birth control pill with or without liquid. Any liquid will do.
Take the pill you've forgotten as soon as possible when you remember you've forgotten. The risk of not being protected anymore is highest when you've forgotten to take the pill in the first 7 days of the strip and the last 7 days of the strip. If you've forgotten a pill about halfway of you're strip it's a little less risky. If you take the pill more than 12 hours after you take it normally, it's not safe anymore. So use a condom for the rest of the month. The morning after pill is also an option. You can keep taking you're pill the way you usually do if you use the morning after pill as well. But the morning after pill isn't meant for regular use, so try to just use a condom for the rest of the month. Also, if this is not the first time you've forgotten to take you're pill, you might wanna think about using something else like the vaginal ring of injections. That way you don't have to remember everyday.
You should take your birth control pill on schedule regardless of any bleeding.
Your period should not be delayed from missing a single pill.
Breakthrough bleeding on the mini pill is very common, especially if you don't take the pill at the same time everyday or miss a pill.
The first month you use oral contraception you should be careful. You should keep using a condom in that first month. After that, if you take your pill correctly, you should always be safe. (expect if you've had diarrhoea or if you've vomitted, then you're not safe anymore and should be careful until you start your new strip)
You should continue taking the pill as scheduled regardless of any bleeding.
You should take your cat to the vet immediately just to be safe.
