am i right in thinking that you need to take the mini-pill everyday at around the same time for it to be effective?

my mate, apparently, has been taking the week break like you would with the combined pill. i pulled this face :shocking:

    The mini pill is like, single hormone one isn't it? The combined is the one with the week break, I thought the other one should have no breaks :

    Here is the link to the site fact sheet which says no break!
    Click!

    Hoe that helps!

    when i was on it there was 28pills in a pack...was she skipping seven of them or having her period in the fifth week? not that it matters - its still like you thought....ineffective.
