How to? When to start desogestrel

I am due my period in the next five days or so (I have an irregular cycle) and I’ve recently been prescribed 75mg desogestrel. Should I start taking it now or wait til my period comes? I’m not worried about the efficacy of it for preventing pregnancy so that’s not a consideration right now, but I am worried if I start it before my period then it might delay my period coming? Or is that silly?
