Yes, pregnancy is possible. When you miss two consecutive pills or more, your hormone level drops, and ovulation is possible. Your body will only suppress ovulation as long as it sees the steady level of hormones that you are receiving from the pill. When that level changes, an egg may be released.
We would advise that you take Plan B within 120 hours of the unprotected sex. The sooner you use it, the more effective it is. Continue to take your birth control pills. Take two a day until you are caught up and then resume the one pill daily schedule.
Missed pills usually cause spotting or breakthrough bleeding so don’t be surprised if that should happen. If you miss your next period, take a pregnancy test. Repeat the test every two weeks until you have a normal period or you test positive for pregnancy. Do not stop taking your pills unless you have a positive test result.
