Levest 150/30 pill and pill advice please!

I was given the levest 150/30 combined pill some time ago but circumstances changed and i ended up never starting taking it hence why i haven't been able to ask my doctor these questions.

I would now like to start taking it but i haven't taken the pill before. I know it's recommended to being the pill on the 1st day of the period however i was wondering if i were to begin taking it around a week before my period is due to start would this offset the period until the withdrawal bleed?

Also does anyone have any experience/ comments about levest?

Any help/ suggestions really appreciated :smile:
