sugar and spice is on a distinguished road
I am lost with this whole birth control thing. I missed two pills...now what
I am switching bc pills. I was taking cycless which had different colored pills to yaz which has one color until you get to the non-active pills. I have missed two days and want to start the yaz today. Since I've missed two days should I take two today and two tomorrow like I would if I missed two regularly or should I just start the new pack and take one? Is this going to increase my chance of spotting during the month or what?

Someone please help me!!!!!!!!!! I'm Lost!

This is what I found at the site. (Yaz)

What if I forget to take my pill?
If you MISS 1 active pill:


Take it as soon as you remember. Take the next pill at your regular time. This means you may take two pills in one day.
You do not need to use a backup birth control method if you have sex. If you MISS 2 active pills in a row in WEEK 1 OR WEEK 2 of your pack:
Take two pills on the day you remember and two pills the next day.
Then take one pill a day until you finish the pack.
You MAY BECOME PREGNANT if you have sex in the seven days after you miss pills. You MUST use another birth control method (such as condoms or spermicides) as a backup for those seven days.

If you MISS 2 active pills in a row in the 3rd WEEK:


If you are a Day 1 Starter: THROW OUT the rest of the pill pack and start a new pack that same day.
If you are a Sunday Starter: Keep taking one pill every day until Sunday. On Sunday, THROW OUT the rest of the pack and start a new pack of pills that same day.
You may not have your period this month, but this is expected. However, if you miss your period two months in a row, call your doctor or clinic because you might be pregnant.
You MAY BECOME PREGNANT if you have sex in the seven days after you miss pills. You MUST use another birth control method (such as condoms or spermicides) as a backup for those seven days.

If you MISS 3 OR MORE active pills in a row (during the first 3 weeks):


If you are a Day 1 Starter: THROW OUT the rest of the pill pack and start a new pack that same day.
If you are a Sunday Starter: Keep taking 1 pill every day until Sunday. On Sunday, THROW OUT the rest of the pack and start a new pack of pills that same day.
You may not have your period this month, but this is expected. However, if you miss your period two months in a row, call your doctor or clinic because you might be pregnant.
You MAY BECOME PREGNANT if you have sex in the seven days after you miss pills. You MUST use another birth control method (such as condoms or spermicides) as a backup for those seven days.

If you forget any of the 4 reminder pills in Week 4:


THROW AWAY the pills you missed.
Keep taking one pill each day until the pack is empty.
You do not need a backup method.

FINALLY, IF YOU ARE STILL NOT SURE WHAT TO DO ABOUT THE PILLS YOU HAVE MISSED:

Use a BACKUP METHOD (such as condoms or spermicides) any time you have sex. KEEP TAKING ONE ACTIVE PILL EACH DAY until you can reach your doctor or clinic.

I really didn´t understand the question well, I hope I helped, but you seem a bit desperate you should call your doc and ask if you´re so concerned.

Good luck! ;D
