You can start with the active pills on any day. BUT the pill won’t be active in your system to prevent pregnancy until you complete the FULL pack.
It would be easier to keep track if you start on sunday as that is how the pills are labeled. the green ones are reminders so you get into a habit of taking pills everyday.
You could also just wait for your period before you start but if that is in 2 or 3 weeks, don’t wait and start sunday.
