Ok, so as I was going to take my pill this morning, I dropped it and lost it. Yikes! So, I just took the pill for tomorrow, and then I will take the next one the day after that, basically just be a week ahead. I'm supposed to start my sugar pills on Sunday, but because of this, I'll start on Satruday. Is this ok? What should I do? Am I going to be protected? Please Help!

I'm not planning on having sex anytime soon, so I'm not too worried about any risks this month. Should I start my new pack of pills next sunday like I normally would, or should I start them on Saturday becuase I missed this one pill? If I started it on sunday, I would have had an 8 day homomone free strech. I just wonder if that would put me at greater risk for pregnancy next month.

No, you can start your next pill pack when you normally would, and the extra day shouldn't really have an affect in the effectiveness of your pill.
