You missed only one pill but then took it maybe 12-20 hours later and still got your period 2 weeks early - should you continue on this pack or should you start a new pack when your period finishes?
yes you should finish the pack you're on. you may still get your period again when you get to the placebo pills, but continue on the pack you are on for sure. you only throw it away and start the new pack if you miss 4 or more

If you start birth control pills at wrong time in cycle will you miss your period?
If you start the pill between periods, the timing of your next period will change. Most likely you'll get a withdrawal bleed at the end of your pack if you're on a combination pill.
What should you do if you miss the first 10 pills of a new pack?
If you miss the first 10 pills of a new pack, I would recommend either (a) abstaining from sexual intercourse or (b) using a different method of birth control, ideally condoms, until your next period. On the Sunday following the beginning of your next period, you should start an entirely new pack of pills. Of course, you should try hard to be more consistent with the next pack.

If you missed more than three pills, you wait till your period is over and start a new pack. This way you get yourself back on track.

When do you start your new pack of birth control pills?
You start your new pack of pills when you finish your old pack. Lets say you had you last pill on a Wednesday, you then start your new pill on Thursday. If its your first pack you have ever taken then you either start your first pill on the day you start your period or on the Sunday during your period. At first you period will not go with the pill correctly; it my take a month or two for your period to adjust.
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.
Today i will be starting the pill and i need to miss my period for June as i am going on holiday.The doc said that i skip the inactive pills and start the second pack. Any chance of getting my period?
as long as you skip the inactive pills and do not miss any of the second pack you should be ok. i have done it before and had no problem, but remember you are delaying your period so it will be eager to start again so do remember to take them and dont forget any. also its advised that you only occaisionally skip your period but yeah for your holiday you should be ok.

You should start the next pack no later than seven days after your last active pill in the previous pack.
If you skip the green pills and start your new pack as if you did take the green pills will you get your period?
NO. The green pills are just so you continue to take a pill every day. It is not a 'period' you have while on them just a 'withdrawal' bleed so if you want to skip it for a holiday or something, miss them out and go straight to the next pack.
