FORGOT PILL ONE DAY, KEPT TAKING NEXT DAY

Hi, I'm 24 and I have been on BC pills regularly for the past 5 years. I just started this month taking Yaz. Anyway, Apparently on a Saturday night, two weeks ago, I forgot to take my pill. However, Sunday comes and I take Saturday's pill, but not Sunday's (I didn't realize I had forgotten- no days written on my pack). I continue the rest of the week, being essentially one pill off. I took Sunday's pill on Monday, and Monday's pill on Tuesday. I realized this on Wednesday, and then took two pills to get back on track. Somewhere between forgetting and realizing I forgot, I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend. Am I in danger of pregnancy?

Missing one pill is not terribly risky.  You did exactly as you should have done.

However, if you fail to get your period when it is due, you should test for pregnancy, just to be sure.

it matters if its was a pill on the end of the pack or the start, bcz if it was yu better off checking for pregnancy there the most important pills ... first and last pills but in the middle of the month if yu miss on its not really important
