I haven't been on here in awhile, but I thot I could turn to you ladies for some help.

Can you get pregnant if your on birth control and take your pill late a few times. I've never completely missed a pill, but sometimes, like I usually take my pill at 8pm and I wont remember until 11, or 12 or even 2 in the morning when I wake up?

Does taking your pill late increase your chances to get pregnant?

If you do it on a occasional basis you can, b/c is not always predictable you can still get prego off it like me lol!!!

Something for those of you who dont know

if you mix birth control with alcohol or any type of prescription medication it can lower the effectiveness of the pill which can increase your chance of getting pregnant.
