Suggest Dosage For Birth Control Pills

default
Posted on Mon, 11 Jan 2016
Question: Hi, I missed 2 of my birth control pills on the 3rd day early morning I took one pill and at night when I normally take the next pill I took another. The following 2 days I took one pill each day and I was going to start a new packet instead of going into the placebo pills but now I have an extra blue pill and I have my period as well... should I take the blue pill and take the placebos and start a new packet as normal or should I just start a new packet?
