Hi Your question is: Are you protected on your 7 day break on the contraceptive pill? Providing you have been on the pill for over one month, then you are protected against pregnancy but if you miss a pill you will not be protected. Please note this is advice only & should not be used in place of your Doctors.

After your 7 day pill break on a 21 day contraceptive pill does the first pill you take on your new monthly packet work straight away when you start on your 8th day?
Yes :)
What would happen if you took the contraceptive pill every day for several months without taking the 7 day break?
Nothing. The doctors today say this is OK. I wish they had said it when I was on the pill.
Can duoluton L be used as contraceptive pill?
Can duoluton be taken on 6th day
Is it all right to take three packs of 21 day contraceptive pills without the 7 day free pill break?
Yes. That's just how seasonale, seasonique, and quasense are set up.
Is the contraceptive pill fat or water soluble?
The contraceptive pill is fat soluble, meaning it dissolves in fat rather than water. This is why it is important to take it consistently at the same time each day to maintain effective levels in the body.
If I am on a period day one will taking the contraceptive pill stop it and how soon?
Matter of hours, up to a day depending how heavy your period is.
How many days after the 7 day break do you bleed?
It depends on the oral contraceptive taken, and the person taking it to how many days into your break your period starts. With regular pill taking and time your period should be easier to predict accurately once your body gets into a regular 'rhythm'. It can start any number of days after taking the last pill in your packet, but usually starts during the 7 day break rather than after.
Are you protected if you switched from NuvaRing to the pill I started the pill the day I would have put in a new ring Just wanted to know if I am protected?
Yes. You are completely protected. I have researched this exact question recently!
When should you start the birth control pill after stopping the contraceptive implant?
You should start the birth control pill on the day the contraceptive implant is removed. If you do so, use a backup method of birth control until you've taken seven pills correctly.
If you stop taking your contraceptive pill how quickly can you fall pregnant?
Well each day that you do not take your pill, your chances of becoming pregnant increases greatly. You can get pregnant almost immediately.
Is it OK to take a different contraceptive pill for one day if you do not have enough of your usual supply?
No. Because different contraceptive pills work in different ways, and at different dosages, substituting one for another will not work.
What part of my cycle should I start taking the contraceptive pill again?
You can either start taking the pill on the first day of your period, which is called day one start, or on the first Sunday after your period, which is called a Sunday start.
