I have just started using BELARA tablets. After selecting 21 tablets from the blister, can I take a 4-day break (instead of 7 days) and start pack 2 faster? To speed up bleeding by a few days? I have just started using hormonal contraception, this is my 1 pack. Will there be any consequences from a shorter break between blisters?

Yes, with Belara contraceptive pills, you can shorten the interval between blisters, instead of the standard 7 days. This will accelerate the occurrence of withdrawal bleeding. Shortening the interval between packs can also increase the risk of unwanted side effects such as irregular bleeding or spotting, especially if you are new to contraception. Shortening the interval will not affect the effectiveness of contraception and you will still be protected against pregnancy, provided that you take the pills as prescribed by your doctor and in the instructions in this leaflet. I enclose a link to the page where you can check the availability of Belara in pharmacies in Poland and make a reservation of the drug in the selected pharmacy: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/9841/belara-tabletki-powlekane/apteki I enclose materials that may be interesting and information about the possibility of using teleconsultation: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-prawidlowo-stosowac-antykoncepcje
