Missed last week of birth control pills Posted: 04-09-08 11:24am
My last "regular" period started Sunday
March 2nd. I started a new pack of pills
on Thursday March 6th and took them right
up until Thursday March 20th, then missed
the rest of the pills. I started my period
on Sunday March 23rd and finished on
Thursday, March 27th. I started a new pack
of pills on Sunday March 30th and haven't
missed a pill since. I had sex on the 20th
(last day I took previous pack of pills),
then again every day from March 23 until
today. Is there a chance I could be
pregnant?

Absolutely you are at risk. You have to
take a full pack of pills in order to be
safe for an "off" week. You didn't, so you
could have become pregnant. It's been more
than two weeks so you should test now.
