I may have misinterpreted how to start taking the pill for the first time. I waited until after my period was over(one week later) and started taking it. I think I may have started it wrong. Can I continue to take my remaining pills or start over and take it the first day of my period? Knowing I should have started it on the first day or within /in 24 hours of my period makes me concerned.

It will change your cycle if you take them a week late, but I don't know if it will after just one month. I know because I missed a week before and started the next week and it changed mine, but it may have taken two months....

now, you should continue the therapy as per the dosage guideline. As you may have misinterpreted your days but you can continue the calculation of periods to take the medicine.

It depends on the pill. It is best to not take a chance with that. It wreaks havoc on your system. I got pimples, my moods were all over the place. I got it checked out and my doctor told me very firmly that if I do not understand the drug like a doctor, I should not be experimenting with it.
