Hi...quick question...I'm on Ortho Tricyclen for almost two years now and have NEVER missed a day taking my pill. I take it everyday at 5pm. I worked all day/night and totally forgot to take it until around 9:30pm...am I still protected or should I use a back up method? I had sex this morning and my partner came inside of me...would that be cause for concern? Thanks!
