and I think I dropped a pill and didn't take it, but i started taking the white ones, but all through the month i've been getting cramps, and my mom said its because im not used to the hormones, but i think i dropped the pill one day and didn't realize it. it said to take all colored ones before taking the white ones, but like I said, I think I dropped one, what should I do now, its the day my period is supposed to start, and it didn't.

You could be getting cramps for either reason.

As far as what to do, have you been taking the pill perfectly? It's ok if you loose a pill, as long as you took a pill that day. You'll just end your cycle a day early. How long have you been taking the pill? It's common to have an irregular cycle when first starting the pill.

Are you sexually active? If so, you may want to consider taking a pregnancy test if your period doesn't come when it's time to start your next pack.
