Combination pill question
I used to take the contraceptive injection and now I don’t get periods. I need to start taking the combination pill but would like to have unprotected sex in 5 days. The packet is saying that I can’t have it until 7 days. However If i have just had my period I can take the pill and It will work straight away. How will I know if I don’t actually get periods? Should I take the pill and will I be fine in 5 days?

With injections you dont get periods. So it is difficult for you to.knpw if you get periods and when. So you cannot start the oral contraceptive pills- . Wait. Do USG PELVIS ..Meet gynecologist personally.
