Do you need to take the sugar pills in your birth control pill pack?
The sugar pills in your birth control pack are there to help you stay in the habit of taking a pill every day. You don't need to eat them.
Why do you have to take the sugar pill?
assuming you are referring to the inert pills in a pack of 28 day birth control pills, you take the pill to keep you used to taking the pill so you wont forget when its time to take the pill pill again
Why your yasmin birth control pills has 21 tablets only?
You have the option of buying Yasmin 28 pills or 21. The 21 pills option simply doesn't have the 7 last sugar pills that are just there for a reminder to take your pill everyday. So if you have the Yasmin 21 tablets and are done with the last pill in your pack, you don't take any pill for 7 days, then start in a new Yasmin 21 pack.
If you start your period on the first sugar pill and your period lasts 4 days do you finish the rest of the sugar pills or start taking the hormone pills again?
You should always finish your pack You should always finish your pack
Can you skip the sugar pills with the mini pill?
Ack! There are no sugar pills in the mini pill! There are only active pills, 28 of them in each pack, and you must take one daily in order to avoid pregnancy. If you start skipping seven of them every month, you're going to get pregnant!
Can you keep taking the pill one pack after the next?
If you are asking about not taking the placebos or "sugar" pills and taking active pills one after next, then yes but it is not advised.
If you skip your sugar pills to skip your period and start the new pack right away and it results in spotting is the pill ineffective?
No, spotting is not an indication that the pill is ineffective.
Can you skip the sugar pills in your birth control pill pack?
inactive pills are just that inactive, so you don't need to take them, they are there to keep you on track so you know when to start your next pack, and keep you in routine of taking the pill.
What is the use of the sugar pill?
The sugar pill is just to keep you on the regimin of taking a pill everyday, you don't have to but be sure to get back on the active pills when you should stop taking the sugar pills
Which pill is the reminder?
It should be the last pill in the pack that is different colored from the active pills. Different pill brands different color pills.
When coming off the pill should you stop at the end of the pack before the sugar pills or after you have taken them?
I am not a doctor, so you should verify with one before making a decision, but to my knowledge you should take all of the pills in the pack. I also learned recently that the last pills in the pack are not just sugar pills anymore. Many of these pills contain important vitamins and nutrients that your body needs during your menstrual cycle.
Are micronor tablets all the same?
Yes, every pill in Micronor is exactly the same. The dosages are the same, and there are no sugar or placebo pills in the pack.
