Q: Day 1 And Sunday Start

asked by: aleesun2 on March 27th, 2004

If you start on day 1 or sunday are u always going to get your period during the last week of sugar pills? I know my doctor said that on sunday start i'd get my period during those pills but is that also true for day 1? It seems like you'd get your period more often then if you started on day 1 then. Or am I not thinking about it right?

I am confused as to what you are talking about. If you start your new pack on sunday, that is your day 1, right? O.K, you are always suppose to have your period during the sugar pills. I usually have mine until I take day 1 and day 2. But that is just me.

You will get it during the last week of pills either way. Sunday start versus 1st day start is just a matter of what time of week you start. Some like to start on sunday so they know it starts at the beginning of the week. I would usually get my period on day 3 of the sugar pills.
