Brief Answer:
you can cantake pills in next next month

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Welcome to health care magic.
I hope your pregnancy test has been negative.
If that is the case then you can restart the pills for the next month as routine and try to take the oral contraceptive pills regularly.
Irregular pills have very high failure rate and they can affect your hormonal balance and so to cause unwanted side effects.
I hope the advice will be helpful for you.
