Start Birth Control immediately or hang around?
So I'm also wanting to start my birth control this month. I be told to start the Sunday after I start my period, which would be tomorrow. Yay! Right?
Well, I'm leaving for a BIG trip surrounded by September. A trip I'm paying all by myself for my birthday, and I do NOT want to be on my period when I walk! I'm leaving Sept 11th and will return on the 15th.
So my question is: Should I start the birth control in a minute and hope my body will try to adjust to the pills and hopefully screw up my body schedule so that I won't own my period when I'm gone, OR should I wait to start the birth control for after my trip and hopefully this is only just a one month thing and that my period will return to the middle-of-the-road 26th of the month or even a different date other than when I will be gone? Haha.. I don't know... I'm so depressed about it lol
Answers: When it say the Sunday after you start your period, it means that. Start tomorrow. The exact same entry happened to me. I called and asked, and that's what they told me. You could hail as ad ask too, but they'll tell you matching thing. It won't mess up your body by the way. You will most feasible finish this period while on the pill. Your "new" period will probably be "early". Also, if you're on a superior dose pill, you can skip next month's period by skipping the placebo pills and starting a alien pack (you can also ask about this when you talk to you doctor)..
i'm sorry to hear this but i surmise you should wait
