Hello, Diana! How are you?

You are at the point where you should just start a new pack and you'll need to wait a full 7 days of taking the active tablets, before having unprotected intercourse, again. That means it will not be safe to do so, until the 8th day.

If you have a smart phone, there are apps that you can download, many of them free, that you can set to remind you to take your medications. My fiancé and I both use one, on his Android and my iPhone, to make sure neither of us misses our regular medications.

Is there anything else I can help with?
