Question i have been taking MicrogynonŽ 30 pills for 4 months now, i was meant to take my first pill of my 5th pack today, but I've left them at work, would i still be protected if i took both of them tomorrow and have unprotected sex after that? i haven't had any sexual intercourse in the last 7 days
Answer Yes, you should still be protected from pregnancy if you take both tablets first thing tomorrow morning. If will be important that you do not miss any additional tablets for this pill pack. If you do, make up the missed pills the same way and use an additional form of birth control for the remainder of the pack.
