text: as the pill regulates periods does it also regulate ovulation cycle? will the pill have altered when the egg is supposed to be released each month?  or would it still usually be two weeks after my period?  i am trying to figure out when it is most dangerous to miss a pill?  ( don't judge me on this) i just want to know as i have missed a pill before in the middle of the month and wonder if this would coincide with when egg release would usually happen.  no critical answers please. it regulates menstruation but stop ovulation unless you are sick and have the runs then the oral contraceptive is useless
