If you forget to take a dose of your birth control pill, it is important to take it as soon as you remember. Depending on which week of your pill pack you are in, there may be different instructions on what to do if you miss a pill. It is generally recommended to use a backup form of contraception for the rest of your cycle to reduce the risk of pregnancy. Remember that missing a pill in the first week of your pack is more concerning than missing one in later weeks.
