I understand that you are in the second week of taking the pills. According to the Summary of Product Characteristics for missing a tablet from the second week: "If you are reminded of a missed dose, take the last missed tablet immediately, even if it means taking two tablets at the same time. The next tablets should be taken at the usual time. If you have used the correct dosage within 7 days before you forget to take a tablet, you do not need to use additional contraceptive methods. However, if more than 1 dose is missed, the woman should be informed to use for 7 days
method of contraception." According to this information, if you forget to take a Yasminelle tablet at the same time in the second week of treatment (and then take the missed dose as soon as possible) and you have taken the previous doses regularly, the contraceptive effectiveness is maintained and the risk of pregnancy is low. The tablets should continue to be used as scheduled.
