Do I Have a Problem????
Posted: 09-19-05 22:58pm

Me and my girlfriend are very sexually active and she has been on birth control for about 3 years. Well, the other night she actually has missed her 2nd last pill before the sugar pills. She woke up the next morning and took it at 9am and she usually takes them at 12 (midnight) everynight. She is now on her second sugar pill without her period and we of course had sex w/o protection and I finished inside her... Do I have anything to worry about, should I take action upon this (maybe the "morning after pill") or something, should I be worrying, because she's not worried about it at all for some reason... Should I be worried?

Well, if she has been on birth control for 3 years, it should already be in her system enough to protect her while missing a pill. As long as she took the pill the next day she should still be covered. I'm not sure, but give it a few days, and don't stress, because that'll make her worry. When you worry it makes your period later. If in a few days, or a week, she hasn't started, then maybe she should take a hpt. Hope this helped!

Don't worry, as she said. Your gf should be just fine, and not pregnant, lol.

Just remember, anytime she misses her pills, it lowers the effectiveness of the pill, no matter how long she has been on the pill. The good thing is, she remembered to take it.
