The sugar pill week has always confused me. I read an earlier post stating that you are unlikely to get pregnant during that week because you are menstruating, but my period ends a few days into the sugar pill week. What are the chances of getting pregnant having unprotected sex after my period, still in sugar pill week??

Your chances of becoming pregnant on birth control (even during the sugar pill week) are very low. It is safe to have sex during that time and not become pregnant.
