So I was on the last week of hormone
pills, but I went on a small vacation with
my family and lo and behold, forgot to
bring my pills! I missed three in a row,
and had lost the directions so I took all
three at once. The next day my period
started, whether jump started by the
hormones or because I missed the
pills....
I've been taking the hormone pills since
and have been bleeding through my last
week of hormone active pills. Should I
continue and take the non-hormone pills
and bleed for another week of start a new
pack?
I am not sexually active... so there isn't
any emergency
thanks!

I would really call a pharmacist.... my
gut is to keep taking them as you are
supposed to (stay on your schedule), but
you really shouldn't have taken 3 pills at
once, so I don't really know what you are
supposed to do in that situation.

HELP ME PLEASE I AM SO CONFUSED!!
Well i would love to call my gyno but
frankly hes a total ass and rushed me off
the fone to help older women with
menopause and other crap when i could
possibly be pregnant.
I take medroxyprogesterone acetate for my
irregular periods (because w/o them I
never get my period on my own) and I
recently had to take the plan b pill
because my boyfriend and i had an
accident. Then I took medroxyprogesterone
acetate 3 days later to get my period and
im still waiting for it to come (its been
2 days "late"). Am I pregnant or is my
cycle just screwey because of the plan b
pill? Am i paranoid or should i go and
take a pregnancy test? HELP ME PLEASE
REPLY I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO!

I'm sure your cycle is just screwy because
of the plan b, it does that. But I'm not
really sure how it works with the
medroxyprogesterone. I think your best bet
is to call your pharmacist.
Like I said, though, don't expect your
period to be regular after you take plan
b!
