HELP! I forgot my birth control!?

I'm on the Pill--ortho (the generic kind). Anyway I forgot my pill case this week and I haven't taken 2 of the green pills! What do I do? is this ok? Friends say it's okay because it's just the placebo pills. I'm on the last week of pills and on my period. Should I just take the 2 pills + the one for today when I get to my pill case?

    well if the green pills are the last set of pills in your case then dont worry about them. they are the placebo pills as your friends stated those are just to help you to remember to take your pills all the time .. its like a reminder pill.so dont even bother taking them

    do you want us to cite you the leaflet instructions to your pills?

    or is it rather easier to read it by yourself?
