I missed 4 days on my birth control!?
Question:
Answers:
I believe you need to start it again as you would as if you never had it before since you missed 4 days of the birth control. I would use a condom for at least a month just to be on the safe side.
However i would call your local planned parenthood or speak to your doctor about it
Usually the ones that you take when you are on your period are placebo's anyways so it shouldn't make any difference but check with your pharmacist.
Just start with the 4th day pill. I wouldn't take the other pills- it doesn't matter because this month is already shot. You need to abstain or use a condom or other birth contol until you get your period.
If it is the last day of your period then you should be okay just to start your birth control normally. It usually takes about a week after your period for you to ovulate, so if you start it today than it will have enough time to stop you from ovulating. If you are still concerned than ask your doctor when you go to get your perscription filled. I would deffinitely suggest that you do not take all four pills in the same day.
well dont worry i once didnt take the pill for a week because i was on pain meds for the teeth i had pulled apparently the meds didnt mix..so after the week i just took the pills i missed at once...wasnt sure if that was the best thing to do but it worked.,..i would use a condom for a month just to make sure nothing happens...i would take the pills starting now...day 5 of your period...and so on..so in 21 days u will have another period well ( give or take a few days probably around your 23rd day )
i found a web site for you. it say's if one day missed start a new package and take 2 pill's for that day then one pill every day after that. if you missed 2 day's take 2 pill's for 2 day's then one pill every day after that.
there are instruction's for 3 day's as well but.
if you mis 4 day's you should consult your doctor
