Hello, I have a question regarding my Althea Pills. Ive been taking this contraceptive for 7 months now for hormonal imbalance issue. I usually start a pack on a Monday, and take the last pill on a Sunday. I usually start my period Thursday or Friday of that week, and then start again Monday (8th day from the last pill). But this month, for some reason my last pill was taken on a Saturday. I counted back the days from when I started, which was correct so Im guessing I lost the last pill because I don't remember not missing a pill for that pack. I had contact Friday (day before that last pill that I took) and Im worried that it won't be effective anymore since I'm not able to take the last pill. Is there anything else I need to do? Should I start the same way, or 8 days from the last pill I took. I need help, please. Thank You.
