When to begin the Pill
I went to the gyno yesterday and was given Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo to help regulate my periods. I have not had a period since March 2008. My doc told me to begin my first month of pills on the Sunday following the beginning of my next period. Problem is, i don't have any idea when that could be. Does anyone know if it would be harmful for me to begin taking the pills now and not wait for my next period?

Definitely not pregnant. My period finally came a few days ago. Started the pill today. Hopefully I don't get any side effects. My friend was on Ortho Tri Cyclen Lo and said that it made her depressed and suicidal. I have a history of being extremely sensitive to all kinds of medications. We'll see how it goes.
i guess i missed that part about not having it since march. are you sure your not pregnant??? if not then i would jsut take it. it wont mess with you or anything
Hi I am also taking ortho tri cyclen lo you just take it the Sunday after you get your period. If you get your period Saturday you start the pill the next day...
I haven't had my period since March!!! Should've been here two months ago....i'm still waiting....
