question: Iam taking gracial ( combined  oral contraceptive) and started my next pack one day late  as i took my first pill from the current pack on the 8th pill free break day instead of the 7th and had intercourse after taking the pill on the 8th .took the forgotten 7th day pill on the 9th day (two pills that day) . Will starting the subsequent pack one day late increase the risk of pregnancy or am I protected as long as I took the forgotten pill?
