Good for you for using protection after missing pills. Start the pills where you left off, taking one every day at the same time for at least 10 days to be under complete protection again. Use protection until then. You might want to consider a different form of contraception such as the Progesterone (DEPO) shot instead so you don't have to remember daily.
