Missed Birth Control Pill Dose? What To Do


Question
I accidently started my birth control pills on saturday instead of sunday.  I just noticed it today (monday).  Should i continue on taking them as usual now or should I skip a day?  how about when i'm done with this pack of pills at the end of the month, should i wait a day and then start on sunday like always?

Answer
If it's not a problem for you to start on saturdays from now on, just continue starting on saturdays. If you want to start on sundays here is what you do: When you have taken your saturday placebo pill this will be the last pill on your current pack. Start a new pack on sunday. If you use 21-day pills, start a new pack on sunday during your pill-free week.
