A member asked:
If i am already done with my period by the time i get to the placebo pill, do i start a new pack or finish them out?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Start the new pack: If this is a recurrent problem i would recommend you talk to your doctor about a change in pill- this shouldnt happen regularly. It's not worrisome if it happens once or twice. If it were me i would make sure i wasnt pregnant (take a home pregnancy test) and if the test is negative start a new pack of pills right away.
