How To Start Having Noriday Pills After Missing Three Days In A Row?
I missed the noriday pill 3 days in a row. I haven't had sex the past 3 days I haven't taken them. I last had my period last week. How should I start taking it again? (I don't want to go off it) I just forgot to take them because I was away. Should I start taking them next period, or tomorrow on time? Will that work?

Hi and welcome to HCM.
Noriday contains Norethisterone 350mcg. It is a contraceptive pill known as a progestogen-only pill or “mini-pill” and is used as an effective means of birth control to prevent unwanted pregnancy.
Noriday contraceptive pills provide effective contraception when taken correctly and have a very low failure rate. The failure rate may increase if you miss a pill and may result in an unwanted pregnancy. To prevent this ensure that you take your Noriday contraceptive pills correctly and continually.
If you have missed 2 or more contraceptives pills as in your case you have missed 3 days, stop taking Noriday until your next menstrual bleed, then begin a new pack. Use other forms of contraception during this time like condom.
