Cramping, Missing Periods, Missed Taking Pill. Normal?
Okayy, i have a question about birth control pills. I forgot to take one and took it the next day with the other pill. Now I'm on my inactive pills a day away from taking my active pills again. I still have not started my period, but have cramping like I'm on it. I have not had sex. Is this normal for missing one pill?

Hello
Thanks for your query.
Your missing the one single pill does not matter, because you made up for it the next day.
Also, you sound as if you are about to start your period.
Sometimes, you might have a delayed period once in a while, when on the pill.
As you havent been sexually active, do not worry.
Continue with the remainder of the pack as normal , and restart the new pack on schedule.
take care.
