A member asked:
Been bleeding for eleven days after forgetting my birth control. my period is also due soon. should i start a new pack or continue taking them?

Continue: If you forget to take your pill then you will trigger bleeding. You should continue taking them one per day and use condoms for the next two weeks. Consider an iud or an easier birth control method too.
