A member asked:
My doctor told me even if i miss a couple of birth control pills it won't affect me becuz i've been on it for 10 months now, is she correct??

No: If you miss more than two in a row, you put yourself at risk for pregnancy and should be calling your doctor for instructions. Depending on where you are in the pack, you may need to take makeup pills or restart a new pack.
