Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Since you are due to have your periods this week, you can stop taking the pills for now and wait for your periods. After the periods you can start with a fresh pack. The chances of pregnancy are low since you took two pills twice.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. You can consult me again directly through my profile URL http://bit.ly/Dr-Rakhi-Tayal

hello, welcome to HCM, I am Dr. Das
look, you have taken too much pills in a monthly cycle. for your information, in a menstrual cycle, if you are able to take all the drugs, then you do not need anything extra for protection against unwanted pregnancy.
SO, as a side effect of these drugs, you may experience this type of delay in period and also some irregular bleeding.
For a period, you have to wait for 7 more days. But before that do a home pregnancy test just for confirmation.
After that if she does not have her period, you have to consult with her gynecologist for further management.
