my first bit of advice is to you my young man: be sure to use a condom. birth control pills aren't nearly as effective if they're not taken correctly. you both may be at risk right now of her being pregnant so if her period doesn't start on time she probably will want to take a home pregnancy test. meanwhile your girlfriend should start the new pack on the correct date (as if she hadn't gotten off track). she will need to take her pills correctly for at least 30 days in order to be confident she is protected against pregnancy. for more information your girlfriend can consult her pharmacist or the medical professional who prescribed the pills. also my general public service announcement: always remember birth control isn't the responsibility of just one person in a relationship. even if the woman takes birth control pills it's a good idea for the man to use a condom. this helps prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases and adds protection against unwanted pregnancy. likewise for girls: even if a guy volunteers to use a condom you need to use some kind of birth control yourself if you want to avoid pregnancy. don't rely on just one method. take care!
