A member asked:

On mononessa &started my pack a week late because of insurance problems but now i am on day 14... i missed a pill 2 days ago but took it 10 hours late?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Backup : If you miss a week, wait until you start your period then restart your new pill . So your next 3 or 4 cycles will likely be a little erratic. Hang in there and it should clear up. But. You are at higher risk of pregnancy. So use condoms as well.
