What do you mean it was your last day of
taking it?
Do you mean you are now on the
sugar/placebo pills? The ones that cause
your period? If yes, then you are still
protected from pregnancy.
If you mean that you are at the very, very
end of a pack of pills and already took
the placebo week, and you don't intend to
take the new pills of a fresh pack, then
you may be at risk. Why are you stopping
the pills in this case? If you do not want
to get pregnant, then you need to start on
a new pack of pills the day after the last
placebo pill. Skipping or missing pills in
the first week of active pills after your
placebo week is the most dangerous time
for accidental pregnancy on the pill.
Semen can stay in a woman's body for up to
a week, which is plenty long enough for
your body to ovulate if you don't start a
new pack after the placebo week.
