contracepive pill

I have been on the contraceptive pill for a few months now. last week (on the second day of week 3) i forgot to take it so instead of taking it at 8am i  took it at 11pm that night. Should i go straight onto the next strip without having the 7 day pill free period or should i continue as usual as it was so early in week 3?

I think most doctors would advise you to continue the cycle as normal. Remember those things are designed to be taken at the same time every day so you really have to remember.

A quick call to your doctor would help this. Just explain the situation and see what he/she would advise but I'd suspect they'd tell you to just  continue as normal.
