Hello dear
Understand your concern
Ginet 84 is oral contraceptive pill contain both estrogen and progesterone. It is very effective and successful in preventing pregnancy (success rate 98-98 percent) if it should be taken regular o time very day.
If you missed one pill then take two pill simultaneously on the nest day.
Take the rest of pill as regular.
Missing one tablet does not affect protection against pregnancy.
No need to use extra contraceptive pill.
Take remaining tablet regular on fix time (make habit to take on fix time, put reminder in the mobile).
Hope this may help you
Best regards

Hello, and i hope I can help you today.
If you miss only one birth control pill, and take the one you missed as well as the one that is due that day (doubling up), your chance of getting pregnant is not significantly different than if you took it every day, so you do not need to use a backup method of birth control. You may spot a few days later, but that is normal when you miss a pill and as long as you don't forget any more, you will be protected until the end of the pack.
I hope I was able to adequately answer your question today and that this information was helpful.
Best wishes,
Dr. Brown
