Missing a pill on Micronor

Hmmm.... I looked at the days on my my pack of micronor this morning, which I never do, and noticed that I was one day behind. The problem is I have no idea when I missed a pill (I'm on week 3). I took the extra pill and will take the normal one tonight, but will this be a problem? I just want to make sure it wouldn't be too much since I know I've taken it right all this past week. I plan on taking a pregnancy test, too, since I can't remember the last time I had a period, which is normal on this pill, but my husband and I haven't been using any other backup method. We will defintitely be using a backup for the next 48 hous.

That's pretty much all you can do, since you don't know when you missed that pill.

Hi little28, welcome!

It could be a problem depending when you missed the pill and when you had IC around that time. However, you are probably ok. If you have been taking your pills correctly for the last week then you should be safe for any IC now. Let us know how you’re doing, ok?

Good luck
