What if you are on your second pack and missed six pills in a row in week two?

If you missed that many pills your Birth Control most likely won't be effective until the end of the second pack. If you miss more than two, you have to restart the pill cycle.

Missing the first pill in second week are you covered as normal?
NO if you missed the first pill of your second week you need to take 2 pills for each day that you skipped the pill. if you missed more than one day in between pills take 2 pills then one a day for a week so that you are protected again
What should you do if you skip a week of pills?
Not have sex!! If you missed a week of pills, you will have to start over. Wait for the first day of your next period and start a new pack. Make sure to always have a back up plan!
What should you do if i've accidentally been taking the blue active pills during the week i should be taking sugar pills?
First, be reassured that you haven't increased your risk of pregnancy if you haven't missed pills earlier in the month. But I can't figure out where you got active pills during the week you should have been taking sugar pills. If you mean you started the next pack early, then you will need a refill a week earlier than you thought. Continue with that new pack, taking one pill per day. If you had a week of active pills left in last month's pack, then you must have missed pills that month, and you may be at risk for pregnancy. Contact your health care provider to learn about your options.
How many missed pills before l you get your period?

What can happen if you stop taking contraceptive pills during a week?
It depends on the pill; read the label's instructions on what to do for missed pills. If you just missed a couple of days, you may be able to catch up again. If you missed an entire week, you might need to use other forms of contraception and start fresh with a new pack next month. (Save that half-pack, though, for those emergencies when you accidentally run out and need pills to tide you over until you can get to the pharmacy.)
My first pack the 2nd week on a monday i missed the pill by two hours on Tuesday i missed it by one ive had unprotected sex b4 those times am i still safe from pregnancy?
I have always been told that you should use protection when using your first pack of birth control pills. The pills must get in your system before they offer protection against pregnancy.
Which week will ovulation occur if you miss taking 3 pills in week 1 and 2 pills in week 2?
Missed nearly 40% of the pills.......maybe a condom should be used. Either that or congratulations are in order on your future pregnancy
When you finish one month of the pill how do you start the next one?
You should start your second pack of birth control pills the day after you take the last pill in your first pack (assuming that your pack had 28 pills in it. If it had 21, start the next pack seven days after finishing the last).You start the second pack of birth control pills the day after you finish the first pack, regardless of whether or not you're bleeding.
Two weeks into your new pack of pills you skipped a few pills and started your period continued to take the rest of the pack and now it is the actual time for you to start will you start again?
yes, it should. on my very first pack i missed one pill on the end of my 2 week and i had spotting all the way up to my period. my period was way heavier then normal but it came and went away fast, just try not to miss pills.
Had your period on time in march even know you missed a week of pills now this month missed 5 pills in week 2 and you have your period early its not suppose to be her till the 18 of April?
Missing pills can lead to withdrawal bleeding. You may want to consider an alternative method, since missing pills greatly reduces the effectiveness of the pill.
If you attempt to skip your period by not taking the placebo pills and starting a new pack wont your next pack of pills be a week short how do you get back on track?
Yes, if you skip the placebo pills and start a new pack, you will run out of your pill prescription one week earlier. For some women, that's not a problem; for others, their insurance may prevent them from picking up a pack a week earlier. Contact your pharmacist to find out if you can get your next pack a week early; if not, ask your prescriber to write the prescription to allow you to skip placebos if you want.
If i am week behind on my new pack of pills should i start them from Day 1 or from the first day of the second week?
Start them from where you left on but you will not be protected against pregnancy and must use a condom for 3-4 weeks.
