How Do I Use Trigestrel Pills
(Newest replies first)

Hi, it's my first time using trigestrel pills or any other contraceptive pills for that matter. I started my period on Wednesday, meaning it didn't fall on the red line pill. I thn forgot to take the pill on Wednesday on the day of starting my period; can I start the pill on Thursday and is it necessary to take two pills (for Wednesday & Thursday) ? Is it also necessary to start with the red line although my periods fall on the non-red line. Hope it makes sense.

Is my first time of using those contraceptive pills I was using Injection(Nurstrate),so I started by using those red pills but didn't see my period and now I am confused cause now am on the line of those small pink pills but I am on the Wednesday line instead of Thursday, so I want to know the danger of it.

Okay, the days printed on the package are just a general guide to try to help women remember to take them each day, but they don't actually have any effect on how the pills work, when you start your period, you should just start the pills that day, and continue on, even if the days of the week don't match up.

The NIH lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, and PMS-like symptoms.

If you start on the first or second day of your period, you don't have to double up, unless your doctor says otherwise.

Have you started taking it, yet? If so, what did you do?
