Took wrong Microgynon pill
Posted: 12-31-07 12:39pm

Hi,

for the past two days I've been taking the white pills from microgynon instead of the yellow pill (The daily usage) and apparently I've had sexual intercourse without any protection during this time.

Today I've realised that i took the wrong pills so I took two of the yellow pills to replace the two missing days and took extra one for today (so 3 in total)

My question is: is there any potential for pregnancy in my case?

Any reply would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Yes, since you missed two pills, there is a chance you could get pregnant. I would suggest getting plan b (from your pharmacist or from a doctor or planned parenthood if you're under 1Cool and taking it.

Read the packaging from your medication too, it will have instructions for if you missed two pills.
