This is my first time posting, and I was hoping I could get some advice. I've been taking Loestrin24 for about four months now, and I missed a pill for the first time about a week and a half ago, then, I didn't get my period when I was supposed to. Is this normal? My boyfriend and I are extra safe when we have sex, with me on the pill, and he always uses a condom. I'm trying not to be too concerned about this, but I've always been a worry-wart. Can anyone help alleviate my worries?

A little worried...
Hello!
This is my first time posting, and I was hoping I could get some advice. I've been taking Loestrin24 for about four months now, and I missed a pill for the first time about a week and a half ago, then, I didn't get my period when I was supposed to. Is this normal? My boyfriend and I are extra safe when we have sex, with me on the pill, and he always uses a condom. I'm trying not to be too concerned about this, but I've always been a worry-wart.

Yes sweet.
I would say if you were using Condoms as well, it's a case that your body is simply still adjusting... the moment you put your body out of wack, it's out of wack.
Congratulations for taking the pill and using condoms, when you feel comfortable, you will work towards feeling safe.
A suggestion, if you miss one, don't bother taking two to make it up, won't work...
You can also get the "morning after pill" from Community help, to make you feel safer.
