Hi Anon,

Any time you miss a pill and have unprotected sex, there is a chance for pregnancy. Unfortunately, we cannot tell you if you are or are not pregnant. Please continue to take your birth control pills every day at the same time. If necessary, set up an alarm as a reminder. If your next period is late or missed, you may take a home pregnancy test.

Best Wishes,

Rosa
