Do not trust it. Use a condom.

Definitely! If you started seven days
late, you could definitely get pregnant.
Once you have been taking your pills for
seven days in a row, you will be protected
from pregnancy again.

What do you mean by seven days late? Were
you already on birth control? Was this
your first time?
Either way, YES, you can get pregnant.
When on consecutive packs, you must start
the new pack right after the old pack,
otherwise you may become pregnant. If you
didn't get a new pack for seven days, then
you need to take the pills for a week and
then you will be protected.
When first starting pills, if you do not
start them during your period, you must
wait a week before you are safe.
