Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion even after missing a single pill the protection from hormonal pills is doubtful for that cycle.When you miss the pill you have to take two pills the very next day or as soon as you remember. So I suggest you to follow back up method with condom for this entire cycle.We cannot predict the chances of pregnancy exactly but the risk cannot be ruled out.So wait and check for the period.If the period is delayed by more than a week then a urine pregnancy test need to be done and contact your doctor.
