Q: 

wondering if I will just wait for my bleeding..

Hello. I use diane 35 as a birth control for a few months. But the first week of the pack (pill no. 3-10) I used it as a emergency contraception. Obviously the pack is incomplete. I took the pills everyday as usual and yesterday was my last pill. Also I had sex yesterday. Will I still be protected? Should I wait for my bleeding or start a new pack now. Please help. Thanks!

Hello,
When taking any birth control, you need to take it as instructed no matter how many times you have sex, or when you have sex. This is the only way it will be effective.
You need to take each pill around the same time every day. Do not skip any days. When you finish the pack, always start the next pack on the same day you started the last one.
