Hi Anonymous,
When you miss too many pills in a row and stop taking them, you should always start a new pack (Sunday start) after you start your period. You should never continue to use your old pack of Pills.
If you have any concerns, you can call your Physician or Pharmacist to be sure when you should restart taking your specific Pill as some Pills are different than others. Remember you have a risk of becoming pregnant also when you miss your pills and should use a back up method such as condoms.
