I'm on a triphasic pull and I am usually really good about taking my pill on time. Sometimes I will take my pill 4-5 hours late, but I am generally on time with my pills and never miss one.
I recently was with this guy I've sort of been seeing and we had sex but he didn't ejaculate inside me. I stack my packs together and went 1-2-3 1-2-3 (meaning a drop from the 3rd week to the 1st). Usually I will get my period 4 days into a placebo week. I know I'm still taking active pills, but I literally had cramping and only really minor spotting this month. Now I'm worried I've somehow gotten pregnant and can't remember if I missed a pill (but I would venture to say I didn't).
Is missing a period normal on this pill? I had a random period last month mid-pack and now I'm really confused. I dont like this pill and I am going to try to switch, but I don't know if I have anything to be worried about right now.
Thanks!

Plus, he didn't ejaculate inside you, so yeah. Pretty much nothing to worry about!
Do you know what the window is for triphasic pills and considering them missed? I am getting conflicting reports. My old monophasic pill pack was 12 hours, but I'm not sure about the OTC.
If you want to stack with a lower chance of breakthrough bleeding, you can go 123,321,123, etc., and avoid that more drastic drop in hormones from week 3 to 1.
