That would depend on which type of pill you use. If you use the more common "21 days on 7 days off" type, you are not going to reap any benefits from taking the pill for extra time after you missed 2. If anything, you will be overfeeding your body with hormoes, which can result in hormonal imbalance, irregular cycles, beeding out of period etc. If you missed two nights, stick to your regular schedule, so that you dont mess up the month after this one, but do make sure to use contraceptives, as you are likely to be fertile..... good luck

yes, that is what you are supposed to do, but make sure you use another form of contraceptive (diaphragm, condoms, spermicide) for the next week.

i dont recommend it because youre doubling the hormones...ideally just start the pill cycle all over after you had your period but otherwise....just resume the one pill a day

that is the general recommendation but I would use another form of birth control to be sure
