Short-acting contraceptive pills are usually taken from the onset of menstruation, once a day, each time a tablet can be taken for 21 consecutive days, and then stop for a week, and then start taking the next box of pills. It is best to take the pill at a fixed time each day, for example, if the first day is taken at 10:00 p.m., try to take it at the same time on the next day, and avoid skipping doses during the period of taking the pill.
