Lo Loestrin Lost A Pill

Pill fell, I immediately took the blue pill for the next day but don't think I can get the pill that fell, it's gone... Should I continue with my pack as usual or discontinue and start a new pack? I'm at the end of week 2.

If you only miss one pill, it is usually recommended that you continue the pack, as is, unless your doctor states otherwise, but you should use backup protection for the following 7 days, to ensure you are protected against pregnancy.

The FDA lists the typical side effects of oral contraceptives as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, spotting, and PMS-like symptoms.

Is there anything else I can help with?
