I forgot to take Lolo for 3 days, what should I do?

26-year-old woman2 years ago
I have been taking the Lolo pill for more than two years and a few weeks ago I forgot to take it for three days. I was advised to continue where I left off and since then I have been spotting. Two days ago I had sex with my boyfriend and today I realize that it is flowing profusely. I'm only on my 20th day on the pill so I still have 4 pills left to take. I'm also trying to figure out if the relationship could have triggered the period earlier and if my period will return to normal after all this.

Hello ma'am, did you forget during your current pack?

Thank you for the feedback!
Indeed, the information you received is correct, you should continue taking your contraceptive while ensuring a second method of contraception for the next 7 days.
Spotting is normal after a missed period and usually goes away on its own. For some people, it may take a few weeks, however.
With that written, you can continue taking your birth control as planned, and you can do the stop period at the end of the pack.
I hope I have been helpful, I will be available if you have any further questions.
Sincerely,
Tom Samaha, Pharmacist
