If you're in the middle of your cycle and you took a pill early, then maybe you doubled up one day and will run out of pills a day earlier. In that case, make sure you start your next pack a day earlier as well, so you don't go more then seven days without an active pill.

On the other hand, if you're in the middle of your cycle, and your pill colors change each week, and you took a different color than you were supposed to one day, there is no cause for concern. Again, just make sure you didn't go more than seven days for the pill free interval.

If you're having a hard time deciding which case applies to you, contact your prescriber or pharmacist for advice specific to your situation.

What happens when taking birth control backwards on one of the weeks in between?

If your pills are all the same dose of hormones for each day, then nothing. If you have a type of pill where different weeks have different doses of hormones, then you will need to use another form of birth control (while continuing to take your birth control pills in the right order) for this month, as there is a chance that you may ovulate that month. You do not want to take your placebo pills (the pills you take for 1 week when you are supposed to have your period) during the middle of your birth control pill cycle, as those pills offer no birth control protection. If that was the case, then you may get a surprise period in the middle of your cycle, and you will need to use another form of birth control in order to prevent pregnancy.
