OOPS I skipped a pill...Ortho Tri Cyclen girls...

I missed my pill last night. Do I just completely skip it - I dont double up tonight, right? I always forget!

When I miss one, say I miss it on sunday, I'll take one on Monday morning, then one on monday night, then I'll just take it at my regular time on tuesday. Don't take two at the same time, it makes you feel so gross.

I take it as soon as I remember that I missed it. If I have to, I take two before I go to sleep

When I forget it I always double up the next morning.

NO NO NO!!! When you skip one, you MUST double up the next night. If you skip 2, double up for 2 days. If you skip 3, skip the whole week and start a new pack the next week.

I thought if you remembered that day then take it when you remember...

Double up! Or like Erica said, take it when you remembered that you forgot it!

I just take it when I remember...usually the next morning and then I just double up at that time.

If I miss a pill, I never DOUBLE UP!! If that happens I get so ridiculously sick and disgusting. I feel like I'm gonna die. I simply take a pill in the morning and then 12 hours later I take another pill, so by the next day I am straight

Re: OOPS I skipped a pill...Ortho Tri Cyclen girls...

It totally depends on what color you skipped and what color you are taking the day you remember..
The info pack that comes with them explains everything! Just read it, its all there!

i always take it as soon as i remember. if i don't remember until the next morning (when it's time to take the next one), i try to space it out 8-10 hours otherwise i get horribly nauseous!!
