Althea Free Pill

Hi! It's my first day for the 7 free pill days but I wasn't so sure if i'm protected w/o taking any pill so i took 1 pill for my next pack. Should i stop or continue taking the rest of the pills? If i'll stop when will I continue? Is it safe to just continue another pack? Thank u.

Hello, Jane! How are you?

Yes, you are still protected during the 7 free days, there is no need to take pills during that time period, according to NIH instructions. Usually, you should just continue on and start a new pack on the day your normally would, unless your doctor has instructed otherwise. The typical side effects of oral contraceptives may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, and spotting.

Is there anything else I can help with?

It's my 1st time to use althea pills and my ob told me that I will start my pills on my 1st day of my period, but I didn't notice that I was already menstruating. If it's a light menses, then is it ok if I take my pills on the 2nd day?
