Effect of Delayed Intake or Missed Pill on Cervical Mucus Score (CMS)
Day 41 +/- 3 day to Day 43 +/3 days and Day 69 +/- 3 days to Day 71 +/-3 days

Difference in Cervical Mucus Score between baseline (as Day 41 or Day 69) and delayed (Day 42 and Day 70) or missed pill (Day 43 or day 71) The Insler cervical mucus score (0-12) is the sum of 4 subscores: * viscosity from 0 (thick, highly viscous) to 3 (watery,minimally viscous) * ferning from 0 (no crystallization) to 3 (tertiary and quaternary stem ferning) * spinnbarkeit from 0 (\<1 cm) to 3 (\>= 9 cm) * rank for cells from 0 (\>20 cells per High Power Field or \>1000 cells per μL) to 3 (0 cell) A score \<5 is considered as a protective score while a score \>9 is considered as a non protective score
