On my package it says 7 days. Do you have the information paper that is in the package somewhere? It will tell you. If you don't have that paper you may be able to download the information from the internet.

I would give it a week, they say that if you miss one you should take it as soon as you remember even if that means you double up and suposedly it should sill be efective right away but I would give it at least a week if you are really that worried. My husband got a vas. in Dec. and they say that he should be fine now but we are NOT willing to take the chance.

take it as soon as you remember then take the one for that day about 5 hours later. if your not in your ovulating time, should be fine. That will be about 11- 14 days from the day you started your last peirod.

It depends on the type, strength, etc. Read the package insert and it will tell you. Sometimes it doesn't matter...sometimes it depends on the week. Read the insert it will tell you.
