Hello, If you have just starting BC pills and have missed the first pill in your pack then you have nothing to worry about. But please use protection for the first 4 weeks as you'll be at risk of pregnancy. However if you've missed the first pill of a new pack and you've been on BC pills for a while, then you will need to use a condom for 2 weeks to prevent pregnancy. Continue taking your pills as normal. Please note this is advice only and should not be used in place of that of a medical experts.
