Your risk depends on how many pills you miss and when you miss, such as which week of active pills.
When you miss a dose, you need to take the missed dose as soon as you realize it. That can mean taking two pills in one day and that is okay.
Birth control pills prevent pregnancy by preventing ovulation. Missing too many doses in a row, specifically going seven consecutive days without an active pill, puts you at risk.
All that you can do now is wait for the week you take the inactive pills and see if you have vaginal bleeding.
