The while pills on Trinessa are active pills that prevent pregnancy. If you don't take the active pills, you could get pregnant.
Since the white pills are placebo, it doesn't matter if you were a half hour late, just take it as soon as you remember. If you skip more than 1 white pill, just throw the white pills you skipped, and keep taking the next one normally. The white pills are sugar pills, they are there just to keep you in the habit of taking a pill every day. The yellow pills are the active ones, that contain hormones. Those ones, you need to take ON TIME every day!! ! M.
hi. My sugar pills start on a Wednesday and I usually get my period that Friday. Then it continues until Tuesday the next week.
If you are referring to birth control pills, they should be taken exactly as prescribed. If you take the pink and white pills out of order, it can throw off your period and not be as effective in preventing pregnancy.
The white pills in Apri contain no medication, and have no effect on how well the red pills work.
When taking birth control pills the directions should be followed exactly as stated. With most pills now after 3 weeks worth of pills there are white blank pills to help you keep your place while you are on your period. (My mistake I think I deleted the previous answer. It disappeared and says I modified it)
There are about 12 different kinds of birth control pills. if you missed one you should immediately start using an alternate form of birth control and call your obgyn/clinic and ask the doctor/nurse about what to do.
Birth control pills are generally very effective if you take them regularly every day. The white pill is for the week where you don't need additional hormones, but it keeps you on a regimen. These are different from the morning after pills.
If it is your placebo pill, yes. They are there to keep you in the habit of taking pills. If it's your regular pill, not so much unless you are looking to conceive.

The blue ones are faux pills and not taking the white ones is what starts your period. They are hormones and they tell your body not to have a period. The blue ones just keep you on track so you can have the right number of days before you start your new cycle of pills.
The white pills come first when taking Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo.
