What should I do if I forgot to take the last pill in a pack of contraceptives before a seven-day break?
Should I shorten my 6-day break?

If you have not taken the last tablet, you can shorten the cycle by one day and start a 7-day break on that day. The next pack should be started one day earlier - the break cannot be longer than a week.
If you have forgotten a tablet, you skip the break and start the next pack of tablets the next day. There will be a 7-day break only after the second pack is finished.
In case of any doubts, I encourage you to take advantage of the teleconsultation with a gynecologist, available on our website in the e-visit tab:
