Tri-previfem is the generic brand birth
control for othro-tricyclen.
I missed two white pills (first and second
day). I know that when this happens you
are supposed to take two pills that third
day and then two pills on the fourth then
continue normally. When I finally picked
up my pack, I took the two pills but then
out of habit took a third a few hours
later not remembering that I was supposed
to wait. Now how do I proceed? Do I just
take one from now on for the rest of the
month and how will this affect my body?
:shock:

If I were you, I would just take one pill
a day as usual for the rest of the pack,
but that's probably because I wouldn't
want to pay the $ for a new pack (as my
insurance won't cover more than one pack a
month). A Dr. Is more likely to suggest
you take one pill a day until next sunday,
then throw out the pack and start a new
one. With respect to what you have done
to your body, I doubt you've done anything
too harmful. Of course, if you're
vomitting or something, you might want to
contact a health care provider about a
possible overdose (but I find that highly
unlikely). Regardless, you should
definitely be using a back-up method for
most of this month. Missing the pills at
the beginning of the cycle is the most
dangerous as it greatly increases the
possibility of ovulation. I hope I
helped somewhat :?
