If you forget to take your Birth Control pill for one day, it is generally still safe, but it depends on the type of pill you are using. For combination pills, you should take the missed pill as soon as you remember and continue taking the rest as usual; you may not need extra contraception. For progestin-only pills, it's more critical to take it as soon as possible and may require backup contraception for a short time. Always consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
