Q: Question About Pregnancy While On the Birth Control Pill

asked by: catatwood on November 14th, 2005

New User

I'm just wondering if anyone might know... I've been on the birth control pill for the past 4 months. I missed only 1 pill, taking it later in the day (usually take it around 7 a.M. But took it that one day at 5 p.M.). Otherwise, i've been right on schedule.

This past time, I did not get my period during the week where you take the "sugar" pills. The pill that was missed/took later in the day, happened the week before I was supposed to get my period.

I have never missed my period completely like this while on the pill!

Is it possible that i'm pregnant??

Any help/suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

Anything is possible, honestly. The pill is not 100% effective. If you're thinking you might be pregnant, try taking a pregnancy test.

I hope this works out the way you want it to!

It could be possible that you are pregnant. The same thing happened to me, I got pregnant while on the pill. And I took them at the exact time every month.

Take a pregnancy test to be sure.
