Yes, you will still get your period if you miss the reminder pills. They are inactive, or placebo, pills and serve only to remind you to start your new pack when your current pack is complete.
usually 1 week worth of pills that are missed..i know i am on them
You'll get it either at the very end of your reminder pills or on your first real pill
Hi See your Doctor for a pregnancy blood test. If its negative change birth control.
If you miss 3 or more pills it can cause you to have a period even thought its the 2nd period that month. This is because you missed pills. Missing pills puts you at high risk of pregnancy and problems in your cycle and how well the pill will prevent pregnancy.
Your period usually starts from Tuesday to Thursday after taking the reminder pills.
Marvelon consist of 28 pills in a package. You take them from the day after your period ends and do not miss any pills. There are 21 active and 7 reminder pills. Make sure you take the 21 pills first before taking any of the 7 reminder pills. After the last reminder pill is taken you start on a new package the next day.
While the birth control pill tends to make your period more regular, it can also cause a missed or late period. If you haven't missed any pills, there's no special need to worry about pregnancy. If you've missed pills, or if it's your second missed period in a row, take a pregnancy test and contact your health care provider.
When do you start a new pack of birth control pills if you stopped in the middle of the previous pack and missed 3 pills then started period?
wait until after this one finishes
There are about 12 different kinds of birth control pills. if you missed one you should immediately start using an alternate form of birth control and call your obgyn/clinic and ask the doctor/nurse about what to do.
In some birth control brands, the green pills are active pills and should not be skipped. In other brands, the green pills are placebos (sugar pills or reminder pills) and can be skipped. Talk to your pharmacist or health care provider to get information specific to your brand of birth control pills.
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.
