You SHOULD be okay but you can get pregnant. Sperm can live in the body for several days and missing a pill, can result in pregnancy. You can also be on the pill and have taken it correctly and still get pregnant. It is not 100% effective. So please keep that in mind. I even discussed with my OB/GYN to see if there was any pill that could ease my mind 100% and the answer is no. So I got off the pill and I'm using other methods.
Some pills require you to take it at the exact same time each day, not even 1-2 hours off. It depends on the pill. Some are so sensitive that you must be very, very accurate with the usage. So if you take it at 9pm each night you need to take it at 9pm every night, not 10pm or 11pm the next night.
Do not stress about being pregnant, though. I know what I said is a little frightening but it's unlikely that you are pregnant. the odds are definitely in your favor. if you stress about it, then you can delay your next period just by worrying and that is not good. I've done that and it's just a snowball effect!

Well, it is always possible to get pregnant if you forget to take the pill. The chances are small, but they are still there. The only way to know now is just time--hope things work out for the best.

If you miss a pill, it is not a problem as long as you take two the next day, BUT if you do that twice and miss two pills in a month (even if you take two the next day to compensate) it will basically make for BC ineffective.

You can get pregnant while taking the pill perfectly as you should. For every woman who takes the pill for a year, one in one hundred get pregnant.
However, its still rediculously unlikely that you'd get pregnant.
Next time double up, use your brith control AND a condom. Or atleast birth control and a spermecidal lubricant.

you ought to take the both pills, neglected one and regularly taking place one, on the right time the subsequent day. yet you have to be on pills for one entire month to be secure expensive. It gained't paintings in the first month itself. Take care

Birth control is never100 % ...especially if you miss one..so yes you could still get pregnant! Just depends when you ovulate!

If you don't miss any pills you can still get pregnant, so yea, missing even one pill can raise your chances.

missing pills does not cause pregancy........unprotected intercourse does.
So is your question, "am I more likely to get pregnant if I am sexually active and not taking my birth control properly". The answer is yes.
