What you should have done was put a new one on, and change your change day. Then leave it on and just skip your period. Remember you can always make the off week shorter then 7 days but never longer. Because you took it off 2 days early you need to put it on 2 days early, whether or not you had your period. You do t ever alter your pill schedule except the way I told you. If it's been more then 7,days since it fell off you aren't protected until you have one on for a week.
