Question
is it ok to start the bill on d 5th day of your periods

Answer
Ketan,

Thanks for your question. You will have to ask your doctor or whoever prescribed the pills for you. I don't usually recommend the birth control pills or any kind of hormonal birth control. There are risks and problems when you take hormonal pills. I don't believe that it is the right method to take the pill on the 5th day of your period. But like I said, please get medical advice.
I would like you to email me at DWooley97@aol.com so we can talk more about all this.

Sincerely,
Diane W.
