I tookone 21 day pill midway through my period through misunderstandings. Is this okay? What to do? I went to the doctors today to get put onto the pill because I get seriously bad periods. Through misunderstandings he told me to take my first one today, except I've still got 3 days to go on my period. I took it at 13:30 in the afternoon and have woken up in the middle of the night sick. What do people suggest? I'm a little freaked out. Can I just stop taking them until my periods over?
