Mili® birth control online: same-day prescriptions

You should start by taking the pills on the first day of your period. After this first week, take one light blue pill each day for 21 days.⁵ Then, take one brown reminder pill for seven days – this is the week you will have your period. You won't have ovulated, but your uterine lining will shed just like it does during a normal menstrual period. Be sure to start your next pack on the eighth day, even if you're still on your period. 

If you miss a pill, take it as soon as you remember and then take it as usual. If you miss two or more pills, take two pills as soon as possible and two pills the next day. 

When starting birth control or switching from another type, you may experience: 

• Spotting 

• Changes in mood or libido 

• Nausea and headaches⁶ 

• Slight weight gain⁷ 

• Breast tenderness 

• Leg pain, leg swelling, or shortness of breath (especially if you are a smoker) 

• High blood pressure 

• Depression 

Other symptoms such as chest tightness, shortness of breath, pain radiating to the jaw or back, or lightheadedness could also be related to side effects. Consult your doctor right away should you experience any of these rare symptoms.  

Some drugs, antibiotics, and supplements, such as medications for treating hepatitis C and the herbal supplement St. John's wort may decrease the effectiveness of Mili^®. Others can increase the risk of negative side effects, and vice versa. 

Always tell your doctors about any medicines, vitamins, or herbs you use before taking birth control, and before any surgery, let your doctor know about your birth control, as it may increase your risk of blood clots. 

If you're over 35 years old and smoke or have certain medical conditions such as migraines with aura, high blood pressure or diabetes, or a personal or family history of blood clots, Mili^® may not be the right choice for you. Talk to your doctor about other options or if you need close monitoring while on the pill.  

Watch for signs of an allergic reaction like rash, hives, swelling of the face or tongue, or breathing difficulties, and tell your doctor immediately if any occur.  

If you think you may have an STD or are at high risk of infection, use condoms along with Mili^® for protection. See your doctor right away if you have symptoms concerning an STD. Some STDs can have long-term effects on fertility if left untreated. Getting tested regularly is essential for your health and potential family planning. 

After starting your first pack of Mili^®, it will take seven full days of consistent use for the birth control to become fully effective. During these first seven days, use a backup method of contraception like condoms if you have intercourse.  

Once you've taken the pills for seven consecutive days, Mili^® will be 99% effective if you continue to take one pill each day at the same time⁸. You must take the pills consistently and correctly for Mili^® to work. Missing pills or taking them late can reduce their effectiveness and increase your chances of becoming pregnant.
