Q: Lost Birth Control Pill
asked by: worried123 on July 30th, 2004

I just recently dropped the first pill in my pack. I took the next pill and moved my entire cycle back one day. I haven't used any back up, as I have heard from my clinician that it does not effect efficacy. However, i'm still concerned. Has this happened to anyone else? If so, was everything okay?

Somebody Help!
I'm still a bit worried! My breasts have been hurting really badly, and my nipples have been tender. It started happening towards the end of my light blue pills, it usually doesn't happen until the dark blue pills. Could this be an early sign of pregnancy? Or could it be because I lost a pill and continued with the next pill in my pack? Any advice and insight would be extremely helpful!
