Taking trust pills on the wrong day

I'm on the 8th pill but I accidentally took the 14th pill... Is it ok to take the 9 pill on the next day and continue taking the pill or should I stop taking this pack of pill. ## Hello, Celle! How are you? Yes, you can just continue taking them, there is nothing specific in the tablets that makes it so they have to be taken on any certain day. They active tablets all contain the same thing and can be taken on any given day.

What does the red Oralcon pill do?

Hi, I just got my first Oralcon tablet and I'm on my second period so I don't know which tablet to take. I just want to know if you only take the red pill if you're on your period then when white if you're not? ## If you are new to taking them, you should take them in order, as prescribed, whether you are bleeding, or not. Irregular bleeding can be a side effect of the tablets, when you first start them, and should go away with time, once your body gets used to the change in your hormone levels. Other side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, and weight changes. Is there anything else I can help with?

The side effects, if they occur, can start within a few days and last 2 to 3 months, since these are hormonal based contraceptives.

Hi. I've been using oralcon, the white pills for just 21 days as I was told I used them because I was bleeding for a month and the bleeding did stop but now that I'm done drinking them the bleeding is back. Is it going to be normal? I'm really worried. ## How long did the bleeding continue this time? Have you tried keeping track?

Contraceptive pills, myra e, and natural fish oil

Good Day, I am just wondering if I can take contraceptive pills, myra e 400IU, and Caruso's natural fish oil 1000 at the same time, and what specific time can I take them each? Thank you so much for your response. ## Yes, you can take the supplements with your contraceptive, and there is no specific time you need to take any of them, but you should be consistent so that you are always taking them 24 hours apart, so pick a time that will be most convenient for you to do so. The side effects of oral contraceptive pills may include nausea, dizziness, headache, acne, blood clots, and irregular bleeding. Is there anything else I can help with?
