Start Period On Placebo Pills
UpdatedHi I just recently started using my pills and I was wondering what happens if my period ends before I'm done taking all of the placebos? Should I just continue to take all the placebos till theyre gone or start taking the active pills once my period ends? And is there any way I can choose the day I want my period to start?

Hello, Rosa! How are you? Very good questions to ask, so you can be sure.
You should continue taking all of the placebo pills, even if your period ends, before you're done with them. To choose the day you start, switch the day you start taking the placebo pills, just make sure your doctor approves.
The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, irregular bleeding, and PMS-like symptoms.
Is there anything else I can help with?
