Forgetting a birth control pill that triggered menstruation: what should I do?

If you forget to take a birth control pill and it triggers your period, it is recommended to stop taking the current pack and wait for 5-7 days before starting a new pack. It's important to take at least 21 consecutive days of pills before taking a break. It is advisable to consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice and guidance on how to proceed.
