Hello,
Contraceptives should be taken every day correctly. If you think you missed any day and you have had sex there may be a chance that you can get pregnant. I would suggest you to take a pregnancy test first. If the test is negative then you should consult your ObGy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
