Missed Taking Birth Control Pills. Will This Affect Next Periods?
I was away on business & forgot my birth control pills. I missed several days. Should I wait and start a new pack(beyaz) the Sunday after I get my next period and will that affect when I get my next period? I am not concerned w/ getting pregnant as I have not had sex I am more concerned if this will affect my cycle. Thanks

Hi,
Missing several days of pills will cause a cycle irregularity. You should start the new pack after you get your next period. Meanwhile you are not protected from pregnancy. So use added protection from now till after 7 days of starting the new pack.
