Last month I used the third week of my pills (ortho tricyclen) to delay my period for a week which worked fine. Today I went to fill my new prescription and aparently it has ran out! My question is what will happen if I only take the first two weeks of my pills (this would only happen if I cannot get into my doctor in these two weeks which I am worried about) It's not a question of protection (we use another method also), just a matter of what will happen to my body if I drop from the second week of pills to nothing at all...thanks for any advice...

If you just take two weeks of pills, as you might have guessed, you can't guarantee that you'll be protected from pregnancy from the end of that secodn week of pills until you've gotten a week into a new pack.
