Can I exchange the start day of a current pill pack while taking Ortho Tricyclen Lo?
I have be on Ortho tricyclen Lo for 2 months. I have a Sunday start day for my pills. I want to money my start day to Tuesday to(hopefully) time my length for the middle of the week. My period usually starts next to in a afternoon or 2 of taking the placebo pills (4th week). My period started on Sunday morning. I want to skip the rest of the placebo pills and start my foreign pack on Tuesday, so that next month my interval will start during the week rather than on Sunday. Will this drop off the pill's effectiveness for the subsequent pack?
Answers:
You're fully protected as long as you don't extend the placebos previous 7 days. You may have some breakthrough bleeding or some spotting or a shorter or longer term. But that's normal when you renovate a routine.
