[|Human|] Hello, I m taking Ortho Try-Cyclen Lo. I missed three pills in the first week of this pill pack and I m pretty sure I have started while still on my hormone pills, I m on the third week. I m not taking my sugar pills until next week. I was wondering what I should do. Should I keep taking the hormone pills and finish out the pill pack like I normally would or when I stop should I start my next pack?
[|AI|]  Hello, and I hope I can help you today. If you already missed three pills in a row in this pack of pills, you already have been at risk for pregnancy since you may have ovulated this month.  You can finish the pack you are taking, but I would use a backup method of birth control for the protection during the rest of the pack.  After your placebo week finishes, if you are not pregnant, you should just start a new pack of pills on time and if you don't miss any, your contraceptive will be effective after the first week of the new pack. I hope I was able to adequately answer your question today and that my advice was helpful. Best wishes,
