In Theory, NO!: The cervix has crypts which will keep sperm alive for 48h. This essentially creates a mechanism for a single ejaculation to deliver sperm over the period of 2 days, waiting for ovulation to occur. In theory, an interruption in your pill-taking could allow ovulation. This is not a good combination. Get back on your pill asap, but in the meantime, use condoms or other backup.
