Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I have a doubt with your explanation, you mean you skipped one day tablet on 31st July and you took this tablet on 1st August along with August 1st tablet, so you took 2 tablets on 1st August. If this you have followed then you don't have to worry, you are not pregnant. Another explanation of your sentence is, you missed on 31st July and you took that day tablet on 1st August. You took 1st August tablet on 2nd August and so on. if this is what you have done, then there are chances of you becoming pregnant. You have to get the pregnancy test. If the pregnancy test is positive, it is not safe to keep.
All the best. Take care.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Swetha Dhananjay
