Starting Birth Control Pills Mid-Cycle: What to Do?

Question
Hi. I just started my period yesterday (sunday) i am not getting my birthcontrol pills til thursday. is it okay to start them on that thursday? or do i have to wait until my next cycle. i really don't want to wait cuz i have really bad cramping before every cycle. thanks

Answer
You need to check with your doctor. Everything I have read say to start the pills on the first day of your period or the Sunday after your period starts. Hope this helps and I don't know what else to tell you. So hope everything works out ok.
