Your doctor needs to prescribe the pill for you and there are so many out there but me being a registered nurse(soon to graduate) I would recommend the nuva ring it gets high reviews and I use it. I'm newly wed but I have a child and the ring is the onlt thing that worked for me by creating short periods

yes you would start the pill on day one of your cycle or some women choose to start on sunday after the period begins. ie. if it starts on friday you can wait til sunday to begin the pill or start on the first day

your best bet will be to take the pill to give you extra protection
