Hello Anonymous,

Welcome to EmpowHER.

Since you have not had intercourse when you missed a dose, and are now taking a daily birth control pill, there should be no consequences.

In the future, if this happens, make up for the missed dose as soon as you realize you skipped. This means taking two pills on one day.

Regards,
Maryann
