When my dr switched my b/c last time ( I
hadn't been for about a month due to pg
and m/c) he just gave me the pills and
told me to take two that day and start
from there and he said it was not
necessary to use a back-up method that I
did not need it because I took two pills
the first day. I thought you were either
supposed to start them on the first day of
your period or on the sunday after...And
you were supposed to use a backup method
for the first week..
Do I need to find a new doctor or does he
know what he is talking about?

I would find a new doctor, when I started
mine I was told to take one pill a day
until the pack ran out and that there was
about 10 days where I had to have
protected sex... This worries me that
your doctor may now know what he is
talking about.

Thanks sarah.
We have been using a backup method because
we usually always do...But I just wonder
if he is telling other people this too? I
thought there was something fishy about
him telling me that...
