Hi, Im taking a birth conrtol pill called Qlaira. I forgot to take the medication the other night and I was on day 20, then I forgot to start a new pack and took day 21. I am a couple hours over now and Im confused about what I need to do. I cant contract my doctor due to the time and wont be able to till Monday morning. I was wondering if I should continue with the pack Im on or open a new pack or just dont do anything till Monday morning. Thanks for the assistance in advance.
Hi, Thanks for the query. As you missed one pill, the possibility of complete protection is somewhat doubtful. So better to go for additional protection for one week. And continue the older pack. After completing the pack you can go for new pack as per the schedule. In this week you can choose some barrier method of contraception. For more details you can ask me through
