I'm on loestrin 20 and I miised a pill on the 17th. Realised yesterday morning and took it then, then I took my actual pill for yesterday. What are the chances of me still being protected?

You will be ok if you only missed 1 pill and got back on track immediately. You might want to use a condom until your next period just to be on the safe side if you still have some concerns. I think that every woman who has been on the pill has forgotten to take one pill and never got pregnant.

You should still be protected because you took the pill the very next day. The problem happens when you skip a couple of days.

You are still protected (99% effectiveness of the pill) but if you are worried then use condoms for a week.
