    Quick contraceptive pill question
    Hey everyone!

    I've been taking the pill for many months now. And I noticed today, that yesterday I accidentally took the pill going anti-clockwise instead of clockwise (I.E I took "Thursday" instead of "Monday", silly ol' gal.)

    I'd just like to be assured - that the days on the foil are there only for routine, and it doesn't make a difference which pill I take and should just continue going clockwise?

    It all depends on what brand of pill you are taking.

    Are the active tablets all pink and the inactive tablets green?
