You can start taking birth control pills as soon as you get them — any day of the week, and anytime during your menstrual cycle. But when you'll be protected from pregnancy depends on when you start and the kind of pill you're using. You may need to use a backup birth control method (like condoms) for up to 7 days.
When is the best time to start birth control?
Best time to start birth control in cycle
The best time to start taking the birth control pill is on the first day of your menstrual period, because then no additional protection is needed. The birth control pill comes into effect right away.
Can you start taking the pill mid cycle?
You can start new birth control at any time, including the middle of your menstrual cycle, but you may not be protected against pregnancy right away. This applies whether you are starting a birth control method for the first time or switching to a new birth control.
