I normally start taking a new pack on
Friday's after my period. I accidentally
took the sugar pills for 4 days, so when I
realized this Tuesday, I took 5 of my
"active" pills hoping to catch up. My
boyfriend and I had sex 8 times from
Friday - Tuedsay. What are the chances of
me being pregnant since I started my pill
pack Tuesday instead of Friday, and took 5
on the same day to catch up? Any help is
appreciated...

It's riskiest when you miss pills near the
beginning or end of the pack. It is
unlikely but you could have ovulated in
that time and having unprotected sex could
have gotten you pregnant. You should have
used protection when missing that many
pills for atleast a week after. Also
taking 5 pills in one day can't be good
for you at all :S You must have felt sick
all day. Anyway I doubt you are but if
your period is late take a test. If you
ever miss 5 pills again you should contact
your doctor for advice of what to do.

You should only take 2 in a day and that
is only after missing the day before not
4. I agree with the above comment if it
happens again talk to your dr.
