Missed pills and different brand Posted: 01-22-08 14:23pm
Can u get pregnant if u missed the first 3
pills of your next pack of birth control
pills and had unprotected sex during that
time? I know i've asked this question
before but i need to know. Also when i did
receive another pack of pills it was a
different brand of pills than ive been
taking and i had unprotected sex then
too!!! Is there a possibility i could be
pregnant?
Also if u are pregnant and take the
"reminder pills" what will happen? Will u
still get a period?

No. You more than likely don't get your
period when you are pregnant.
Use back up protection when switching
pills and when you've missed pills.
Continue taking your pills until your next
period is due. It is doesn't come, take a
pregnancy test. DO NOT STOP TAKING YOUR
PILLS.

If you read your pills it will say if you
think you are pregnant stop taking the
pills but that's if you are for sure and
you want to keep the child and if you do
stop use a condom!!! Plus the hormones
from the pills could mess up the test.
Another thing is make sure you take your
pills at the same time everyday and if you
miss a day your are not protected another
thing when you switch pills you have to
wait until next months pills because you
are not protected one more thing if you
are pregnant no you won't get your period
on the "reminder pills" you might get
light bleeding but that will be
implantation bleeding. Wait a week after
your missed period to take a test and if
you get a negative and you still haven't
got your period get a blood test

If you miss a day of your pills, you will
be 'protected' within a week.
It is NOT advised to stop taking your
birth control pills until after you know
for sure you are pregnant. Which WILL NOT
happen until your period is due. So
continue taking your pills until you have
a positive pregnancy test or your period!
The hormones from the birth control pills
DO NOT affect any pregnancy test.
Most of all this is misinformation. Please
look at all the informationa available to
you.

that is not true. missing one pill is
messing up the whole month. atleast that
is what my gyno told me. AND ANY type or
hormone like bc can mess up the test. i
forgot were i read it.

this also is false info. although it is
RARE you can still bleed when pregnant.
But like i said it is RARE but it still
happens

Birth control pills do not contain HCG.
HCG is the pregnancy hormone that is
picked up by pregnancy tests making them
positive. So no, birth control pills have
no relation to positive pregnancy tests
unless you are pregnant.

your pregnant or not
had sex on dec 7 5 days after my period.
Had an irregular period on the 18. Went to
the doctor and had an hcg blood test done
and the results came back negative. Had an
irregular on the 18 of this month for
about 2 days. Took a Hpt last night and
this morning with both negatives.But i
have every symptom of a possible
pregnancy...... Is it possible i just
tested to early at the doctor and of so

not at the
doctor. if your doctor gave you a blood
test it would have shown up.
your not pregnant.
get on birth control if you don't want to
get pregnant.
you had your period that's a sign your not
pregnant.
