Birth Control Issue
Hello! This problem is really specific, so hopefully someone can enlighten me. I am currently on Nortrel (generic for Modicon) bcp. I realized today that I totally forgot to pick up my prescription on Monday (2/20) which is also the day I start using it. Basically, I'm supposed to be on my third pill today (2/22). How do I take these pills to catch up? Is it two today (Wednesday) and two tomorrow? Also, I started my placebo pills last Monday (2/13) and started my period on Wednesday, and had unprotected sex on Friday or Saturday (can't remember which one) but have not had unprotected sex since then. Am I okay, since I was on my period and had not started BC? Thanks for all the help, I totally freak out when it comes to the idea of being pregnant!

(As opposed to the after-ovulation days, which are often hard to pinpoint if not practicing FAM.)
It's the "early ovulation" + "sperm lifetime longer than people may realize" that makes period sex risky.
Please forgive typos/terseness -- the cat is trying to occupy my laptop. And he outweighs it.

I'll try to be more nuanced! Especially when the cat isn't doing Occupy Laptop and scrunching my hands into odd angles to protect my keyboard. >_>
