Hello,

Generally, if you miss only one pill very likely you will be ok. There are a few cases that breakthrough bleeding may happen (depending on what day of the cycle you are) but most of the cases nothing happens. If you miss a second dose (you take the pill more than 48 hours later than the last pill) then you are at risk of breakthrough bleeding and pregnancy.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Antoneta Zotaj, General & Family Physician
