Take your Birth Control pills every day that you have a pill in the package. Some pills are designed to be taken for only three weeks out of the month, but most have enough pills to take one every day.
NO! Take all of the pills every month, whether you have your period or not. Start the new packet the following day.

BCPills only work if taken everyday, missing pills even occasionally will make the effectiveness drop.

You may find after taking the pill for some time that your periods become light or stop all together, continue taking the pills as directed.

I've made my fair share of mistakes, and if I can help you avoid a few, I'd sure like to try.

I've poured enough drinks to know that people don't always want advice—they just want to talk.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
