Birth control
I am sexually active and am on the first week of my combination birth control. I missed the first pill of the pack...and missed another during the week...and then was late for another one. However, I had sex during that week and at the end. I am worried that I'm at risk of getting pregnant. Am I? I, unfortunately, did not use a backup contraception method.
