Hallow Dear,

If you are on regular oral contraceptive pills and have missed only one pill in the complete cycle, there should not be any concern about it. Missing up to 3 pills is permissible in one cycle.

It is very difficult to believe that ejaculation did not effect in the vagina when you have seen semen flowing out of your vagina. Even precum also contains some sperms which can impregnate a woman.

In case of unprotected intercourse, following methods can give protection against pregnancy:

1. Consumption of emergency contraceptive pills within 72 hours of unprotected sex
or
2. Getting intrauterine contraceptive device inserted within 5 days of unprotected sex. The advantage of this method is then you get ongoing contraceptive protection for many years to come.

If neither of these methods were followed within stipulated time and the pregnancy has resulted, it can be terminated by Medical Methods of termination up to 9 weeks of pregnancy. However, these medicines should be taken only with Obstetrician's advice.

I hope this serves your purpose.
