There is a pamplet that comes with every pack of birth control pills that answers all of your questions. For my birth control pills and for all the types I know of, the hormones from the pills roll over into the time set out for your period, when the pills are just sugar pills meant to keep you in the habit of taking your pill.
But if you forgot to take the pill on the day of the beginning of the new cycle and you had sex without a condom, then you risk getting yourself pregnant- the beginning of each cycle is the time when you are most fertile (but you can get pregnant at any point in the cycle except your period). A solution, and some doctors will actually divulge this, is to take that pill you missed, the pills for the 2nd day, 3rd, and 4th days within 24 hours of sex. (It's the same thing as taking the "morning after" pill.) It's important that you take these within 24 hours, because that's when conception of the fetus occurs.
Don't have sex until your next cycle, and from now on, get in the habit of using condoms, just in case. (Birth control doesn't protect you from STDs either!)
^_^ Hope that answered all your questions.

It is possible to become pregnant even when the pills are correctly used. There has not been any medical claim that pills are 100% effective in preventing pregnancies. All claims medically have been probabilities or possibilities but not totalities in their assertions of pills preventing pregnancies. Where for instance the claim of a pill preventing pregnancies is 99%, it is not imposible to discover that the 1% probability will be the effective one at the end of the day. Perhaps this could be the situation in your case.

If you're taking the pill correctly and have been for a few months then its highly unlikely that you can be pregnant, since the pill is 90 something percent effective.
But, without contraception, you can get pregnant any time you have sex. ANY TIME.

pregnancy usually happens two weeks after your last period started
