What should I do if I do not take the first 5 active pills from the new pack (Vines contraceptive pills)? Should I take the first tablet immediately when possible, or do I have to wait until the first bleeding so that I can start taking it on the first day of my period? I had to take an unplanned break from the pills - I had withdrawal bleeding from Saturday to Tuesday and today (Friday) I should take the 5th tablet from the new package. Please advise.

Usually, in such a situation, it is recommended to wait until the onset of natural menstruation and start the next package on its first day. You can also start the next pack immediately (from the first tablet), but you should use an additional method of contraception (e.g. a condom), as the medicine may not provide full contraceptive protection.
