It's important that you understand these instructions to have success in avoiding pregnancy with the minipill.

It depends on the oral contraceptive taken, and the person taking it to how many days into your break your period starts.

By skipping the placebo pills and starting your new pack of active pills, this will delay your menstrual cycle from starting that month.
