Hi,
Thanks for your question.
This history indicated that you took the missed pill after a gap which is more than 12 hours. This much gap reduces efficacy of birth control & warrant extra contraception during the next seven days. In contrast you stopped taking the pill in the next week.
So now, if the missed pill was in the first week of tablet intake and sexual intercourse occurred in the week prior to the pill being missed, then the possibility of a pregnancy should be considered, since you have missed your period.
Take a pregnancy test to rule out this possibility.
Best regards.
