You could become pregnant depending on when you miss pills and how many of them you miss. There is a highly increased chance of pregnancy if you go without hormones for seven or more days in a row.
This could happen if you don’t start a new pack on time and/or forget to take the last one or two pills in the pack.
You may need a backup method of birth control if you have vaginal intercourse during the seven days after a missed pill. Some backup methods are the condom, female condom, diaphragm, or sponge.
