I haven't started taking my pills yet because i'm supposed to start taking them once my period starts. Well today..I had some spotting and i'm not completely sure if I should start taking the pills. It's a little early. What should I do?!

I always took my pills the sunday after my period started.I'm not sure what type of pills you have,but if your doctor told you to start when you got your period,do as your doc told you.If you have doubts-call her/him and ask!!Good luck.Patty
