Missed starting my new pack of pills. . . - April 15th 2010, 12:26 AM

I've been on the pill for a month and i took my white reminder pills but i got my new box of pills late. i was supposed to start my new pack sunday and it's wednesday, i started my period last saturday. if i'm still on my period, does this mean i have to wait until my next period to start my new pack or can i take it this sunday since my period started right before sunday?? I have also heard you can take it within five days, but i'm not sure about that.

HELP!!

well it probably depends on the pill and i bet your pill has a website. check out the site and it might have instructions for something like that

Agh.
The pill confused the hell out of me the first few months. |:

If it's a 21 day pill-

You finish the pack (Taking ONE around the same time everyday.)
Once you finish the pack you stop for 7 days,
even if you're still on your period on the 7th day, you still take your pill, eventually it will stop the period & things will go back to the way they were.

The fact that you're a day late won't really change anything unless you've had unprotected sex in between .. Don't wait for your period to be gone to take it in future though, 7th day.

usually they instruct you to wait until you have been taking the pill for 7 days consecutively to have sex without some other form of protection (condom). just a warning =P
