If i miss only 1 birth control pill during the 1st week, take all of the 2nd week, will i ovulate during that time? i missed one pill due to surgery.

BCP: Usually if u miss one pill, you should take the make up pill as soon as you remember and continue on with your cycle. It is unlikely that you will ovulate, but I would use back up birth control this cycle to be on the safe side.
