    Default two pills in a day; still protected?

    Become a member to remove this ad.
    Around last week sometime I had dropped my birth control down the drain so I took the next day's pill. And don't ask me why, but I took the day after that as well. I've been on schedule with taking them since (I took these two about 30 min. later than normal) and now I'm early with my pack.
    I kind of had a surge of fear a couple days later, so I took Plan B.

    After all of this, I should still be protected, right? I'm on Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo and took two light blue pills.

    You should be fine. Especially if you have been on the pills for a while. It takes time for the pills to be out of your system and just missing one won't effect that. Anytime you just miss a day they say to take one as soon as you remember, and one at the normal time that you were usually taking your pill.
    The only time you have to worry really is when you constantly are forgetting your pills.
