Sounds ok: A woman on combination birth control pills, taking them properly, and is beyond her first pack of pills... has no fertile days. She is not fertile when on the pills. That means she has protection against pregnancy every day, regardless of where she is in her pill pack. Missing only 1 pill in one pack, and then taking it with the next day's pill, does not cause a noticeable drop in contraception.
