BC pill ? (missed a week)

[SueInBoston]

Hi,
DD17 takes BC pill for acne. Last sunday she finished her last white pill and due to illness and crazy schedule, I didn't pick up her pills until today. How should she start her cycle again? take 2 pills per day until she's caught up or just start tomorrow like a regular cycle?

Thank you.

You should only double up for two days (missed up to 2 pills). She should start the new pack on Sunday.

Also, even though she is taking them for acne you should let her know that she is not covered for pregnancy until she finishes this pack.

I would finish starting now and then start the new pack as you normally would. Her cycle might get a bit weird for this month but it's a low dose so she should be ok-except for pregnancy,as already covered.
