Hello, how should I take the mini-pill Slinda?
Good evening everyone, I have had a lot of experience with birth control pills and have tried a variety of them. I started taking the Slinda pill a month ago and today the sachet is empty. That's all well and good but I'm a bit confused. Slinda is a pill to be taken continuously without a break and at the end there are 4 placebo tablets. And I have a label that you have to stick on the sachet with "Mo, Tue, Wed etc." But on the sachet itself it's numbered from 1 to 28. I started with 1 without paying attention to the label. With my previous pills I knew that you take the 1st pill on the respective day and usually stop the day before, so that you are on the 1st day, for example, Tuesday of every 1st dose and Monday to finish, then Tuesday.
I just started on Monday, even though I should have taken it on Tuesday, so I got it mixed up. I'm worried that it hasn't worked the whole time, and I'm overwhelmed about what I'm going to do tomorrow.
Should I do it again, just starting with number 1, or should I start with Thursday, number 4? I'm completely lost anymore xD

As far as I know and can also understand in this particular case, you should first take the 24 tablets with hormones, which, in my knowledge, would have to be white with Slinda and then the four placebo tablets, which, in my knowledge, would have to be green. Did you do that and in order?
You started with “Monday” (according to the label), which was probably a Tuesday, right? Did you start up to the left with a white tablet and then another white tablet every day until the four placebos (farblich green) came? If you did, it would have to be correct – in my knowledge.
I would recommend you to ask tomorrow at the pharmacy where do bought the pack and sign it again and ask if you took Slinda correctly. If it turns out that you didn’t take it right, I’d go see the female doctor. If the last GV took place in a corresponding time window and otherwise no GV took place (except when you took the pill correctly), you will recommend an emergency contraceptive (“pille afterwards”) in the pharmacy.
Hey yes I just started at 01 and worked me down to the placebo tablets. Actually, I don’t think you’re getting messed up. I think I did it right. I was super confused xD and thank you for your answer!
