A member asked:
If you take your birth control everyday and then miss a day, and have sex does that definitely mean your pregnant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Missing for one day usually does not have a big impact (if you have beeng consistently using an oral contraceptive for at least a month). However, when you miss two or more days - the efficacy of protection drops. There is not guarantee that a woman will or won't become pregnant with unprotected sex.
