I took the 1st pill last march 15 and qas able to take until last night, march 17. Since i have to go to korea today and will be back to Philippines on March 24, midnight, i will be missing 7 pills. The last contact with my partner was last March 15. What should I do? Is there a possibility for me to get pregnant?
