Hello, I wanted to speed up my period. On day 22 I took a green pill, while on day 23 I took a white pill by mistake. What to do next? Take the other 3 greens and get a period, or start a new blister. Will the protection be maintained

To @Marcia:
If you do not want to do as I described, you can possibly shorten the time of taking placebo pills, i.e. take the green pill today and tomorrow, and skip the third one (there will be a 4-day "break" in the use of active pills). Protection should remain maintained and the day after tomorrow a new package should be started at the agreed time. However, withdrawal bleeding may occur later than usual because you have taken an extra dose of hormones on day 23.
And can I take the other three green ones and get my period normally and then continue with a new blister?

In this situation, if you have taken the active pill again, it is best to proceed as follows:
To make sure that contraceptive protection is maintained, the manufacturer recommends taking the last "missed" active pill (you took the green one instead), even if it means taking two pills at the same time. Then continue taking the remaining active pills at the agreed time, and skip the four placebo tablets (green) from the last row (in this case, 3 placebo tablets, because you have already taken one ). After taking the last active tablet, you should start taking the active tablets from the next blister the next day. This may result in no withdrawal bleeding, and spotting or mid-cycle bleeding may occur during the next cycle. This will not be associated with a weakening of protection against pregnancy.
