BC missed pills unexpected period Posted: 03-07-08 11:28am
Hey I forgot to take my pills for the last
couple days, Ive been really stressed out
with school and my work load is crazy.. I
just forgot but now i started my period
today.. I took one of the pills.. but I
dont know if i should keep goiin with the
pills.. or what.. I did this a couple
months ago and i kept taking my pills and
it went away... and everything was back to
normal. but i just dont understand which
way is safer for me. Ive heard of people
getting blood clots because of it..and I
just wanna do the right thing. without too
much of a mess hahaha
Thanks a lot!!

missing pills can cause withdrawal
bleeding. you should never take more than
2 pills in a day. if you miss one pill,
then you take it as soon as you remember,
and then the other one at the regular time
that day, and you're fine. but if you
missed more than one you're supposed to
throw out the pack and start a new one.
and make sure you use a backup method if
you have sex.
