Hello,
I have a quick question.
I know when you miss two pills or more you
aren't protected anymore but...
Do those two days have to be in a row?
Because I missed a pill tues. So I took at
as soon as I remembered wed morning, then
took my wed pill regulary. Then I took my
pill 8 hours late yesterday, which cancels
out the affects and is like missing a
pill.
Should I now wait two weeks and will my
cycle and everything be all messed up?
Thanks :]

Continue taking your pills. They aren't
ineffective. Eight hours late does not
'cancel out' the pill.
If you are ever concerned that you may
have missed too many pills, you can wait a
week or use back up birth control (a
condom) for a week.

In my pill packet it says two pills in a
week, not in a row. In that case you are
supposed to take them when you remember,
(which you did) and then use back up for
seven days of taking your pills
regularly.
It probably won't mess up your cycle,
though, unless you're really sensitive to
it.
