Orthocyclen

I was just wondering if it's okay to be off on the days of the week when you're on orthocyclen. Do all the pills have the same amount of what you need to prevent pregnancy, so it essentially doesnt matter what day it says or not?

Also, if I lost a pill, could I use one from another pack on the same principle since they all have the same amount of estrogen and everything in them?

As long as you're on orthocyclen and not orthotricyclen, yes, they are all the same.

Usually, if they're all the same color, you're fine.
