Hi guys..

Just back from my holidays and have zero routine taking my contraceptive pill.

I’ve two pills left of my second week. Forgot to take a pill at the start of the pack but took two the next day when I realised.

At the weekend passed there I completely forgot about about taking my pills as I take them 8am when i get up. Saturday and Sundays pills were taken about 10:30pm.

One missed pill and a few taken late. Can anyone advise?

The missed pill at the beginning of your pack is a problem because you lengthened your pill free interval and your ovaries may have reawakened. It would be unlucky but I would have a very low threshold for doing a pregnancy test if you didn't use condoms as well in the first seven pill taking days. Once you have taken another 7 pills in a row correctly you will be covered if you are late or miss a pill .
