When you finish one month of the pill how do you start the next one?

You should start your second pack of birth control pills the day after you take the last pill in your first pack (assuming that your pack had 28 pills in it. If it had 21, start the next pack seven days after finishing the last).You start the second pack of birth control pills the day after you finish the first pack, regardless of whether or not you're bleeding.


If you finish a 3 month pack of birth control and I am on your last pill do you have to wait another 7 days when starting the next pack for it to be safe?

When you finish the pack like the sugar pills then after your last sugar pill you start the next pack then. you do not have to wait another 7 days. that would increase your chance of getting pregnant because you would be unprotected for a week to two weeks.


When you switch birth control pills are you still protected immediately?

As long as you start the new pack of the new pill on time, there is no interruption in protection.No. If you finished a pack of the old kind, and then started a pack of the new kind, and didn't go more than seven days without taking an active pill, then there's no need for a back up birth control method.


Will it make a difference if you take a pill one day before if can not remember the day you fished on just before your period?

You have the right idea. It would be far better to accidentally start the next pack a day early, rather than running the risk of starting the next pack a day late.
