Missing one pill is not enough to cause pregnancy.
I used to live in New Zealand, and there the Family Planning Assoication gave that as their official advice.
It's only if you miss 2 or more in the same week that you are not protected.

yes yes yes
Get coil now as too late or a mortning after pil
Go now... no pissing about... time is almost up
WHY THE **** DID YOU NOT SAY THIS ON SAT WHEN YOU HAD TIME TO GET A MORNING AFTER PILL !!!!!!!!!
MORON !!!!!!!
THE PILL NEEDS TO BE TAKEN IN 72 HOURS THATS...
3 DAYS
sEE BELOW.
NOW ALL THAT MAY WORK IS THE COIL AND THATS PROBABLY TOO LATE AS THATS 5 DAYS... THIS IS DAY 4
Morning after pill...
95% gonner work if taken within 24 hours (so don’t wait and ask questions here and on a Sunday or say xmas day go to hospital) that’s 5% you going to get pregnant
25-48 hours (two days and nights)
Its only 85% efficets that’s 15 % chance you will get pregnant
After 2 days its only 58% effective (much like flipping a coin)
You may be able to get a IUD coil as well.
IN OTHER WORDS NO QUERSTIONS ON COULD I BE PREGNANT… GO AND GET THE DAMN PILL OR BETTER STILL HAVE SOME IN THE HOUSE JUST IN CASE… BUT ITS FOR EMERGENCIES…
Proper contraception is better ie depro injections AND condoms.
THAT NIGHT OF FOLLOWING MORNING EVEN IF BUNKING OFF SCHOOL OR WORK... TRUST ME BRING PROOF AND THEY WILL THINK YOU DID THE RIGHT THING.
EVERY HOUR COUNTS...
Or look forward to an abortion as you cant follow instrauctions on the pill packet
Unless you got lucky...
I mean you can play russian routlette 50 times and survive.. or once and bang

You can get pregnant by missing a pill or taking it too long after the last one, it also depends whether it's the mini pill etc.
I'd have thought it unlikely though, if you took it eventually, especially less than 24 hours.

probably not. Im forever doing this. I never take it on time and on many occasions i take two together. I have never been caught out. But i understand why you should worry! I have been on the pill for 6/7 years and have not always been careful. Try not to worry. You should have taken two on that day though.

I doubt it. The drug will still be in your system from the day before. usually it takes a month for the drug to get out of your system completly for you to get pregnant.
If your next period is different from your norm (lighter) then do a test after.
I wouldn worry, good luck though.

It depends on what pill you are on but I think usualy unless you are 12 hours late you will be ok.
If 12 hours late then you might be...

Not necessarily, it's happened to me a few times but your next period could be out of sync.

It is within the realms of possibilty but unlikely i should have thought.
All you can do is wait and see i'm afraid.
Good luck. XXX.
