Confusion: Confusion for sure. Are you referring to birth control or some other drug? if it's birth control and you had intercourse on the day you forgot to take your pill then yes, you are at risk and although I am glad you restarted another pack the very next day, I would still be very careful and mindful when the timing for your next period comes around...if it's late, take a pregnancy test to be sure.
