2) What time of daylight is better to take them? morning or dark?

3) When I get my time of year, do I take any pills?

4) what does the covering look like?

I got my regular spell, then a week and 1/2 then I started bleeding for 2 weeks, what does this mean?

I work at Planned Parenthood and this is what we communicate our patients:

1) Normally you will start taking your pills the first Sunday after you start your period.

2) It really depends on you. If you own a tendency to go and get nauseous when taking drug then you should pocket them at night beside some crackers or dry toast. If not then close to I said what ever fits best into your schedule and anything time you are going to most remember to take them.

3) With most birth control pills you will enjoy your period sometime in the last week of pills within your pack. These are normally sugar pills. There are also pills you can pilfer to only enjoy 4 periods a year or even to not ever own a period.

4) Again, it depends on what type you are taking. Some are a dial pack and some ore rectangular.

5) You need to use a vertebrae up method (condoms) for 7 full days after starting the pills. Which means if you are starting them on Sunday, you are not protected by the pill until the following Monday.

Good luck and I hope this help you.:)
