Can I apply the Ginoring disc another day if I have run out of prescription?

I ran out of prescription for the Ginoring contraceptive disc, which I should apply on Sunday. Can I put the puck in another day?

Doing so will result in the loss of protection against pregnancy. It may also pose a risk to her if you have had sex in recent days. According to ginoring: "If the interruption in the use of the vaginal therapeutic system was longer than 7 days, a new system should be set up as soon as possible. If intercourse occurs during the next 7 days, an additional method of contraception (e.g. a male condom) should be used. If intercourse took place during a break in the use of the vaginal therapeutic system, there is a possibility of pregnancy. In this case, you should contact your doctor as soon as possible. The longer the pause in the vaginal therapeutic system, the greater the likelihood of pregnancy." The optimal course of action would be to apply the disc without any undue delay, because if the establishment of the new system is delayed by more than 3 hours, its contraceptive effectiveness may be reduced with all the consequences described above. On public holidays, medical help can be sought through the government platform: https://www.gov.pl/web/zdrowie/tpk In exceptional situations, however, a pharmacist can help (but this is a right, not an obligation): https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/kiedy-farmaceuta-moze-wypisac-recepte
