Forgot to take contraceptive pill

2017-12-04 11:51:39
Hi there, I have been taking the contraceptive pill ethinylestradiol drospirenon. I had the break week and was supposed to start taking it again Friday morning (December 1st) However I forgot until last night. I looked it up and took 2 pills last night and continued with my third at the normal time this morning. Should I continue with my course as normal? I will have one extra pill at the end of the packet, what should I do with it?
