Hello, I take birth control pills Seasonique 91 tabl. - new packaging and withdrawal bleeding every 3 months. I am on vacation where they are not available for purchase, so I will be late with the start of a new package 3 days. Isn't it a problem that the cycle will get longer? And how long should I use an additional form of protection against pregnancy? If for a whole month, can I just start packing in a month with the next bleeding? Thanks in advance

You can start taking Seasonique tablets with a 3-day delay, but if intercourse occurs during the break, there is a risk of pregnancy and you should take a pregnancy test, e.g.: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/97388/pink-test-ciazowy-strumieniowy-super-czuly-domowe-laboratrium-test/apteki For the first 7 days of taking the pills, you should use an additional method of contraception, e.g. a condom. You can also wait until your natural menstrual period occurs and start taking the pills on day 1 of your cycle (1 day of bleeding). In this situation, contraceptive protection will be provided from the 1st day of taking the pills. After using and discontinuing hormonal contraception, natural menstruation usually returns within 6 weeks.
