Skipping the Inactive Pills? Posted: 06-14-05 09:38am
I took ortho tricylen lo for 9 months and
wen I got to the inactivepills I just
wouldnt take them, then I would start up a
new pack the following sunday because I
figured there wasnt anything in them
anyway. I just started taking yasmin now
and I havent taken the inactive pills but
my period is 2 days late... Is there
something in the inactive pills that I
should actually be taking them? Or maybe
because I switched pills my period is just
late.
Please please let me know any information
about this. Thanks very much! :)

My guess is cause you switched pills but I
could be wrong. Have you had unprotected
sex?? It's just a waiting game now. If
you haven't started in a few days take a
pregnancy test....
If ya need anything, i'm here....

No, there is nothing in the inactive pills
to worry about. They are just placebos
and only put in their to try to keep
people in the habit of taking a pill
everyday so they don't forget when they
need to start a new pack.
Your lateness is more than likely because
you switched pills and your body is
adjusting to them.
