Q: Miss Birth Control Pill And Possible Pregnancy
asked by: loosecannon24 on January 1st, 2006

I was taking the birth control pill estrostep. On my second week of my cycle during wednesday, I had sex 3 times where my boyfriend came inside of me. I had missed my pills that tues-thurs. And took 4 on thursday simply because it was packed in my bag from a trip and I forgot about it. Then continued regular use of the pill. What are my odds of getting pregnant?

Okay, so you took 4 regular pills right? Then you proceeded with regular pill use ?



The official estrostep pill use guide says if you miss three or more pills in a row keep taking the pills. But the next sunday after you miss the pills start a brand new pack. So basically do not allow yourself a placebo week. And do not have sex for at least 7 days. It says that you will still have protection, but it is lessened to a degree. Mostly sex you have after the missed pills would be more dangerous because it takes a few missed pills to increase chances of ovulation. So if you have not already, start a new pack!!!!! Do not have a placebo week!




Here is a question very similar to yours that was asked on a website where a real doctor answers
go to
managingcontraception.Com

Well I kinda got pregnant the same way...Me and my fiance had sex unprotected all the time ....And I was on bc....But then one night I forgot and skipped one pill....And by that I got pregnant...So if I were you i'd test ...But don't stress over it ...B/c that can also make you miss your period...And it can also get in your head and make you have pregnancy symptoms!
