I'm taking birth control pills. Recently I missed one and realized it once it was time to take another pill. So I took both at the same time. The pamphlet just said to take two the same day. Is it ok that I took them together?

Yes it is. You'll be fine (and just as infertile as you have been).

Take them at the same time. If you miss 2 days...be careful til your next cycle. I used to to it all the time and no OOPS on my side.
