Lo Loestrin Fe Wrong Pill On The Wrong Day

Updated

I've been on LO LOESTRIN FE for 6 months. This month I took the wrong blue pill on the wrong day instead of taking my Tuesday pill I took my Monday pill of the following week which were located on the same line on week four of the packet. So I chosed to take my wenseday pill, Thursday pill and so on until I reached Monday and I took the Tuesday pill instead. Would I be okay?!

Hello, Aisha! How are you?

Yes, all of the blue pills are the same and contain the same dosages of the hormones, so they don't have to be taken on any specific day of the week. The days are marked on there just to help you remember to take one each day. However, the only tablets that are different are the white ones and the brown ones.

The FDA lists the typical side effects of oral contraceptives as possibly including nausea, dizziness, weight gain, headache, irritability, breakthrough bleeding and PMS like symptoms.

Is there anything else I can help with?

So I just realized on the first Thursday of my second pack I took the wrong Thursday pill. I took the last Thursday which is a white pill not blue. So the next day I though I had simply forgot and took 2 blue pills. Now a week later I looked at the pack I realized what I did. So I'm almost done with week two pills and when I get to week 4 I have have one white pill left. What should I do? Also I keep getting my period. I've been on lo Loestrin Fe for 6 full weeks and have had my period for 15 going on 16 days and that's. Not counting a week of spotting before the first period which was 9 days. I only hadon oh had 7 days in between when the first one ended and second period started and I'm now on day 6.

My problem had nothing to do with the Lo Loestrin after all. I ended up having an ultrasound which revealed a large fibroid that was invasive and causing my bleeding. I had to grt a versapoint myomectomy and a D&C 3 weeks ago.now I haven't got me my period yet but when I do I will try to lo loestrin again.

I accidentally took the white pill in week one. So I took the two blue pills to be up to date the next day. Therefore I am missing one white pill for the fourth week. Should I start over w a new pack? When?

I missed my pill yesterday which should have been a blue pill. Today's pill was a white pill so I ended up taking a blue and white pill. Is that ok?

I took a white pill before finishing the last blue pill in my lo Loestrin fe pack. Do I just take the other white pill and not take the last blue pill?
