Missed 2 pills
Posted: 01-17-08 14:55pm

ok i missed 2 of my bc active pills and i read the little booklet that came with it and it said that i can get pregnant if i dont use protectinn. well me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex wed the 16th. on some websites it said that i should start ovulating on the 18th. is there a good chance i will get pregnant? on some websites it says that sperm stays alive for at least 3 days so can i get pregnant? sorry this is so long

Chances are you are not pregnant. You still have time to take the Plan B though.

I agree; you should go get plan b just in case. Birth control is supposed to prevent ovulation, but if you miss 2 pills then that messes up the constant hormone flow in your body that stops the ovulation and it could cause it to happen.

You want to get pregnant? Does your boyfriend know this/do you have plans for pregnancy? How old are you?

If you want to get pregnant, than you shouldn't be on birth control.
