Im assuming you're talking about missing a day of the pill.
All you need to do is take the pill as soon as possible, along with the pill you are supposed to take today (so its possible to take 2 pills on the same day).
However, if you missed the pill say a week ago, you will need to talk to your doctor.
Missing a day of Birth Control wont mean you are going to get pregnant for sure, but it does increase your chances.

BUT if you are on birth control and find out you are pregnant, please STOP the birth control, unless you intend to get an abortion.
