I take the 21 day novelon as a bcp.  I get this medication by mail & it arrived several days late.  i should have started taking the pill again on sunday, (following my period), but did not receive the new pill pack until today.  is it possible to make up the doses & use backup protection for the next week, or do i need to wait until my next period to start taking the pill again?
Thank you for the question, and thank you for visiting our site. I would start the pill immediately and use backup protection for the remainder of this month.  It might produce some irregular bleeding later in the cycle, but given that there was only a small delay of a couple of days (I am assuming) then you are probably okay and this will not lead to a significant disruption in your cycle. I hope that this helps and good luck!
