Answers:
ok you've really got to read the pamphlet that came with the pack, or talk to your doctor, or talk to your pharmacist, or google your pill online BEFORE thinking "it doesn't matter"!.

You CAN'T miss your active pills!.

The brownish stuff IS blood!. Its OLD blood!.

I'm assuming you just started using birth control pills!. You periods will not be the way you usually remember them!.

Call your doctor up now and let him or her know what happened!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You can't miss the white pills, it's the colored ones that are the placebo!. Your period is messed up because you skipped them!. Make sure you use condoms for a month until your BC pills are working properly again!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I used to be on those pills and would double up on them when I missed until I was caught up!. This is terrible advice since it's against doctor's advice so don't listen to me!.!.!.!.but nothing ever happened to me though!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
