A member asked:
I missed two pills in a row but followed the instructions and started with a new pack asap, will it lessen the effect of bcp?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: You followed the directions as you should have. If you are worried you can use a condom or avoid sex for a few days. Then you will not even have to worry about this at all.
