Pregnancy?: Chances of pregnancy are minimal to none. Missing a pill may cause spotting or breakthrough bleeding, but if you continue to take them regularly as directed and within the hour you took the previous day, you should be protected. Pregnancy protection is never "100", however, so get a serum HCG test in 21 days to be certain. 5"

Some.: The risk trying to become pregnant is about 10-20% per month. The risk in one year using birth control not terribly well is about that per year. Various factors influencing fertility affect it tremendously. So any estimate is quite rough but more than 1% and less than 15%.
