A member asked:
I missed 3 birth control pills then took them this am then 10min ago i started to bleed? should i just let my body bleed? or will it stop by tomorrow.

No way : There is no way to stop the bleeding at this point. If you miss pills or take them late you can expect to bleed. If you miss 1pill you should take it as soon as you remember it. If you miss 2 take 2 each of the next 2days. If you miss more than 2, throw the package away and start a new package the next Sunday. Be sure to use a backup method if you miss more than 1 pill in the package. Be safe
