Q: Started Taking Next Month's Pills Without Waiting...

My girlfriend accidentally started taking her next month's pills without taking the fake pills for the 7 days. Her period should have happened three days ago and she is all nervous (even though we don't have unprotected sex on my end) and i'm wanting to assure her that since she took her pills when she shouldn't have, that now her period time will be messed up. Is this correct and what should she do in regards to starting to take her pills again?

Thanks!

Oh geez! How did she not take the blanks? Anyhow yea, it would slow down or stop her period! She should contact her doc regarding the pills

She'll be fine.The dummy pills do not contain hormones,so you get your period.It is perfectly okay to do that once in a while.She is not getting her period because she started a new pill pack.She should finish that new pack and then she will get her period as usual when she is done.If she is that worried,she should call her doc.Good luck to you both.
