You should use a back up form of birth control, like condoms.

How much of it for how long are you taking it? Are you taking it to stop your period. You say you can't take your mini pill while you are on these (bolded above).

How about you call your doctor and ask him/her what you should do for birth control. Or read the pamphlet that came with your progestogen pills you are taking to bring on your period. It would have been inside the bag you got from the pharmacist. Or you could also ask your mom.

WEAR CONDOMS as backup protection since you are not taking your MINI PILLS!!

All Ingi is trying to tell you is that you need to use condoms if you choose to have sex now.
