apparently the green pills are placebo pills I was going to start taking them when my period started it hasnt started yet & my friend said it hasn't started yet because I haven't started taking the green pills I've just been taking the pink pills
obviously, I don't want to take the placebo pills at the wrong time...so what do I do? Can I just keep taking the pink ones? It's not like I like my period anyway. Or is that dangerous. thanks

I know I am not pregnant, I took a pregnancy test
