Emergency Contraceptive Pills + Birth Control = what do i do now?!
Question: ok so during this pill pack i took the first on, missed the second and third and only found out during the fourth day
so what i did was...take the two pills i missed [2nd pill and 3rd pill] on the fourth day immediately after realizing i forgot abt taking them
and then i took the 4th pill on the 4th day also but during the time i usually take it [which was around several hours after i took the 2]
now i had unprotected sex without withdrawal, completely forgetting i messed up during the first few days of pill taking since that never happened to me before.
so what i did was i took nordiol and ECP since im getting paranoid of the possibility of pregnancy due to the forementioned unprotected sex [2 pills now] then im waitng 12 hrs to pass to take the next 2 pills since thats how i know it works.
NOW QUESTION IS:
1. DO I STILL CONTINUE TAKING MY BIRSTH CONTROL PILL PACK [GRACIAL] SINCE I TOOK THE ECP ALREADY?
2. IF I DO, ILL GET MY PERIOD IN A FEW DAYS MESSING UP MY CYCLE, WHAT THEN?

you need to complete your 'morning after pill' then you need to come off the pill alltogether untill you have had your next period, then start your normal pill on a fresh cycle..
unfortunatly you should not have sex again untill after you have been back on the pill for a week. i know this is not what you want to hear, but thats the heavy price of messing up your pill.....try not to forget again =(
you need to talk to a doctor, all those hormones all at once can't be good for your body
Maybe you should restart the process completely, but then again you shouldnt be taking the pill if you cant be responsible with it, try an different birth control like nuvaring because you dont have to ever worry about forgetting it. It's just as effective as any birth control, its just monthly.

and be very careful with the ECP, it is not a form of birth control so it shouldnt be considered plan B more than 2 or 3 times.
