When are you supposed to start a new pill? The day after your last active pill or the day after your last inactive pill? Oh, I hope i'm not screwed...

Do you have a 28 day pack? In this case you take all the active pills, then the inactive ones and after that you start a new pack. On 21 day pills you take all the pills, then wait a week and start a new pack.
Best of luck
