Hallow Dear,

Missing one pill during the whole cycle is permissible in contraceptive pills. However, if you realize it the next day, you may take one additional pill on that day.

In all missing of 3 pills in one cycle are permissible.

Yes, if you take missed pill and todays pill it is advisable. However, to avoid gastritis and nausea due to pills, take them at 12 hours interval.

I hope this helps you.
