Q:

Ok so here is my question... Last Friday, June 1st I was on my last week of pills before the inactive pills I was supposed to finish my third week on Sat, but my car got stolen and I could not take my pill so I missed my pill last Saturday and then my inactive pills started so my question is if I start my new pill pack this Friday, June 8th will I need to use a back up or will the pills be effective?

 

A:

Due to the fact this simply made your cycle one day shorter, you shouldn't have a higher risk of pregnancy in this next cycle so should be okay without a back up method.
