Okay, so I had to get a new supply of bc
pills--they're the same kind. Orthonovum
1/35. I got a years supply in advance
because i'm moving away from home for
another year, blahblahblah.
I am now on the first day of my period
(saturday) and I want to start a new pack
instead of finish the green sugar pills
from my old pack on a sunday start....Can
I do that?? I guess it's just like
starting a new pack...Right? I'm just
confused. Tomorrow is sunday and I guess
I could take the first pill of my new pack
tomorrow....Will that work?
Another question--i'm going to be moving
out of the country and it's 11 hours
ahead, so my pill time will get screwed
up, basically. How the hell do I manage
this? Can I change the time I take my
pill tomorrow when I start a new pack?
I'm not going to be having sex for like a
month because my boyfriend is in russia
(where i'm moving), so I guess I can start
this new pack tomorrow on a sunday instead
of finishing my old pack and start at a
new time, which I will have to start
taking gradually and adjust it to the 11
hours ahead time--i hate taking it at
night but i'll have to do that here in
order to be able to take it in the morning
there when the pill actually matters there
and has a point.
Damnit, i'm so confused with all of this.
Anyone help?

Yes, you can start your pill tommorow, but
since you are switching you most likely
may notice breakthorugh bleeding or
spotting..Just to inform you.
Since there is a time difference you need
to take the pill tommorow at a time that
will ensure you do not take your pill too
late. It is best to take the pill within
a 3-5 hour window, but if you take it too
much later you are risking having the
hormone levels change drastically.

What I tell some women to do is keep a
clock set to the time of the country where
you left, that way you will always take it
at the same time..Of course when you move
it will get easier!
