Anytime : Anytime you miss a few pills, you can trigger your period to start earlier than usual. It may or may not end early depending on how much of a uterine lining you built up since your last period. Either way, continue taking your pills as you normally would. As an aside - if you miss more than one pill, you should always use a back up method of contraception such as a condom for the next 7 days after. Good luck!
