I Want To Change My Start Day

Updated February 15, 2016

Hello, right now I am a Sunday starter but due to upcoming events I would like to change my start day to Thursday so that I don't have my period over the weekend. Would I still be protected if I finished my active pills but then started my new pack on Thursday instead of Sunday? This would allow my period to start but it would stop on Thursday when I start the new pack.

Hello, Alex! How are you?

There is no guarantee that your period would stop, when you start the new pack. If your doctor approves it, you may be better off just skipping the period weeks pills altogether and starting a new pack immediately, which may let you skip your period, altogether.

The FDA lists the typical side effects of oral contraceptives as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, weight changes, irritability, and PMS-like symptoms.

Is there anything else I can help with?
