MOST DOCTOR'S TELL U TO START YOUR PILL ON SUNDAY. CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR FIRST THOUGH.TRACY
Normally the birth control pill takes ten days to be reliable. But that is when you take it as directed, {depends on the pill but} generally the first Sunday after your period begins.
Check the package for specific information, but generally the pill should be started on the first Sunday after you START your period.
NO. It's the same pill.
wait til the Sunday during or after your period
Well yeah. If you are on birth control, when you have your "period" or bleeding, you continue with the sugar pills until it is time for a new pack. But if you have not started using birth control yet you wait until the Sunday after your period and then take your first pill, this is called "the Sunday start"
You can start the birth control pill at any time in your cycle. If you are set on starting on a Sunday, then you'll need to use a back up method of birth control for a week, unless it's been five days or fewer since you started your period. Traditionally, women in the US started the birth control pill on Sunday. This has an obvious disadvantage - your health care provider's office is closed on Sunday, and many women start their pill late when they notice too late that they're out of pills. Do yourself a favor and consider starting on a weekday, as they do in most other countries.
you can start the pill any day of the week.
If you're asking about hormonal birth control (i.e. pills, etc), I would assume you'd be less protected for a period of time (usually one cycle) because there's a possibility you may have already ovulated by mid-cycle. Birth control wouldn't help much if there's already an egg floating around in there!
Envoid

Solpadeine is a painkiller, not a birth control pill.
The first birth control pill was introduced for public use in the year 1960.
