Q: 

Can you get pregnant if you have unprotected sex multiple times a day if you miss a birth control pill and take the next one late?

I had unprotected sex before and after I missed the first pill and took the second.

Hello Anon

Thank you for writing.

If you didn't make up the first missed pill then there is some minor risk of pregnancy - we can't give a percentage of risk. Keep taking your pills and if you don't get your next withdrawal bleed/period, take a test. Again, the risk is there but is minor.
Best,
Susan
