    Professionally Researched. (What's this?)

    It is possible to get pregnant if you miss one birth control pill because even when taken exactly as prescribed, oral contraceptives are only 99 percent effective. However, one missed pill does not require the use of additional contraceptive protection like the morning-after pill or condoms.
