Q: orthotricyclein and skipped period

asked by: sunuke on June 6th, 2008

I have been on orthotricyclein for a few years. This month instead of taking the inactive pills I just started a new pack because it was a very inconvenient time to have my period. I am now a week into the new pack of pills. What do I do now, stop taking the pills at this point so that I get my period, or continue this pack until it is finished?

You can continue that pack until it is finished.

You have some bleeding or spotting during the month, but that is normal the first time you skip a period.
