I forgot several days of my pill, do I take the same package again or do I start a new one?

23-year-old woman2 years ago
Hello, I have been taking the pill Alysena 28 for more than 2 years now. On Sunday June 19 I had to travel and unfortunately I forgot it at home. So I did not take it from June 19 to 22. I was on the 18th pill out of 28 on Sunday. I did not have sexual relations during this period.

Thank you for your question!
If you wish to continue taking your contraceptive in the same way, that is to say 21 days plus 7 days without hormones, I suggest that you start a new package and take it all. This may cause spotting or bleeding while you are on the contraceptive but it will go away on its own.
I hope this has been helpful to you and if you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask!

Thank you! And for the first 7 days I have to have protected sex, right?

Yes, the first 7 days when you start the pill again, that's right!
