OK, so for some reason, I have not remembered to take my pills this week until about 45 minutes after I normally take them. I've just started my 2nd pack, so I'm on my first week of actives. I took every pill out of the last pack (even the non-actives) at noon practically on the dot every day. I have a lot of my mind this week, so that's why I haven't remembered to take them until 12:45-1:00 for the past three days. IS THIS OKAY? I'm on Yasmin which I believe has a 2-4 hour window, so I just want to make sure!
Also- this may sound silly, but I have to ask. When you go off of your non-actives and back to your actives in a new pack, does this mean that the hormones just start getting into your system again? How can a girl be protected from pregnancy during the non-active week when she isn't taking active pills? I bled for several days- during the last half of the 3rd week of my actives and into the week of my non-actives. This period was a lot longer than normal, but I guess my body is just getting used to the pills. I had sex a few times during my non-active pill week. I just want to be careful!
THANKS!! :)
