Could I be pregnant from 1 missed pill?

[Kirsten92]

Currently on the combined pill Gedarel. On 4th Aug at night I took the 15th pill in pack but was sick a few minutes later so don't think it absorbed in my system. Had sex on the 5th Aug and took next pill in pack that night. Due to take last pill on 10th Aug so withdrawal bleed would be due 13th or 14th Aug. What do you think chances of getting pregnant are from this? As I only lost the one pill and it was in the final week do you think it's unlikely?

Any opinions are greatly appreciated!

I believe that you have to miss at least a couple of pills to be at risk, still might be worth visiting the family planning clinic to get some more professional advice.

I missed 2 pills on 2 consecutive days and fell pregnant & my cousin also became very ill one day and threw her pill up and became pregnant! Although she was sick for a week or so, so may have missed a good few days worth so I can't say for sure if missing just the 1 can get you pregnant, Hope this helps a little! If you are worried, I'd do a test 14 days after you missed your pill as it will show if you are pregnant or not
