I forgot my pill for a day?

25-year-old woman2 years ago
I forgot my birth control pill on Friday night. I realized it on Saturday night. So I took the one for Friday and Saturday on Saturday night. I had sex late Saturday afternoon. Should I take the morning after pill or am I protected? I am on my 5th day of my cycle. Do I have to take the morning-after pill even if I took the missing pill from Friday on Saturday?

Hello ma'am, thank you for your question!
If you are well into the first week of your pack, you will indeed need to visit your pharmacy for a short consultation to assess the appropriateness of the emergency oral contraceptive and to manage the next steps.
Sincerely
Tom Samaha, Pharmacist
