I took althea pills for the 1st time last night at 6pm and that was my 4th day of period with only light discharges. At 9pm of the same night I had contact with my partner without any protection at all. It is safe to continue taking pills today?

No, you should still start with the first tablet, and you should be aware that it will take 7 days to become effective at preventing pregnancy, since you've started it so late in your cycle. The NIH warns that its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, irregular bleeding, and PMS-like symptoms.

Is there anything else I can help with?
