I've been on the pill, tri cyclen lo, for
over a year now and have never had any
major problems with it. It hasn't affected
my body in any negative way and all in all
has worked out quite well for me.
In the past month I've, for some reason,
been forgetting to take my pill before I
go to bed every night. This is really rare
for me as I haven't forgotten since I
first started using the pill early last
year. This happened twice so far in August
and as soon as I've remembered I've taken
the missing pill (always the next morning)
and things were fine. However, I forgot
again last night (I don't even know why!)
and took it this afternoon when I
remembered. The problem is that I just got
my period and I'm not expecting it until
tuesday which is when I start my sugar
pills. My question is should I continue on
the pills before the sugar ones or just go
straight to the sugar ones now since my
period has started? Any help would be
great, thanks!

Continue taking your pill as usual.
Because you missed pills your body nedes
to readjust to taking it as scheduled and
skipping straight to the sugar pills now
will make your chances of becoming
pregnant much higher if that is a risk.
If you ware worried about remembering your
pill then set an alard on a cell phone or
watch to remind you at the same time
everyday.
