Hello, Marie! How are you?

Yes, that should be okay, but you should double check with your doctor to be certain. However, that is the way it is normally done, just a smooth straight transition from one oral contraceptive to the next.

Just make sure not to miss any tablets.

However, why haven't you had your period, yet? That would normally be the time that you'd finish a pill pack.
