Candice, from what I am finding, all Althea pills contain the same ingredients, so it actually doesn't matter which pill you take, as long as you haven't missed any, you will still be protected against pregnancy. Just continue taking them, as normal, adjusting by a day and you should be fine.

Roxanne, it can help balance your hormones, but they are not used for weight loss. The only way they will help is if your weight increase has been purely do to a hormonal issue. Have you consulted a doctor?

Is there anything else I can help with?

Taking althea for first time, instructions say take at beginning of period but can be started anytime in the month regardless of period. Why does one have to have partner use condom for first 7 days?

Hello. I'm taking Althea pills and I mistakenly took the last pill of my pack (Friday pill) together with my 2nd to the last pill (Thursday pill) because I thought I missed taking a pill. I haven't really missed any pills prior to this double intake and I was wondering what should I do. Should I get a new pack to take another Friday pill or am I safe to have unprotected intercourse and just start my new pill pack normally?

I missed a pill on Sunday. Usual time I take the pill is 245pm. It says in the instruction, take missed pill within 12 hours after the 24-hour lapse. I took the missed pill the next day Monday 1030pm AND the Monday pill at the same time. I'm almost 8 hours late for my Monday pill. Is that ok? No need for backup contraceptive method?

Hi. I took my 1st althea pill on the 4th day of my menstruation. Do I need to take the 21 pills or di ko na itetake yung pills na dapat sa 1st-3rd day ko ininom? Please help me. Btw, I have PCOS kaya yun yung binigay ng doctor. Di ko kasi gano naintindihan.

"If you start combination pills within 5 days of when your period starts, you’ll be protected from pregnancy right away. For example, if you get your period Monday morning, you can start the pill anytime until Saturday morning and be protected from pregnancy right away"

Is this true? Althea pills are a set of combination pills right? So my concern is me and my girlfriend had intercourse on the 6th day 10hrs after taking the pill. Is it safe to have intercourse at that point in time? My girlfriend started taking the pill on the 4th day of her period.

Nag contact kami my husband ko on my 19th day of taking Althea pill. I'm regularly taking pills at wala ako na missed. Then nung 5th day ng 7 pill free day ko, I had my mens with very light flow. 2 days na very light lang talaga. Side effect lang po yun ng Althea pill?

Hello. I'm a 1st time user of althea and it's my 6th day of taking the pill. I've been having sleepless nights, felt bloated all the time like I want to vomit, and it feels like I'm pregnant. I'm craving foods in the middle of the night. I also have mood swings. Should I stop the pills? Thank you and hope you answer. I'm worried.

Hi. I took Althea pills on the first day of my period that was 11/30/2017, but on my 6th day of taking it, my boyfriend and I had unprotected intercourse (12/06/2017). Is it possible for me to get pregnant? I'm really worried. I just gave birth last 08/24/2017 and I don't want to get pregnant again.
