"inactive"/"sugar" Pills.
Posted: 06-30-04 22:41pm
Well I had sex last night....And I start my period tonight(not sure if its started yet, tampons).
And if im on these"sugar/inactive pills" now and I start my period tonight, could I get pregnant from having sex last night?

And I havent missed any "active pills"

this is bugging me.
I really have been careful.

He didnt, and usually doesnt "go" in me.

When you are on birth control pills and take them correctly you are protected 24 hours a day 7 days a week. The thing that worries me about your post is that this information should be in the pill taking instructions which come with you pill - or on the website. You really should read everything you can about it - after all you are putting it into your body and should know how why and when it works. Just my $0.02

Laura, you have a good point.
Thats why I have read the booklet with the pills over and over.
I went to the site today.

And they never really, specifically answer that question.
And I just wanted a straight answer.
Maybe im not reading it right....Lol.

Thank you!

I don't think so.

You should be fine as long as you are taking your pills as directed.

I have done the same thing a couple of times and I even ask my Dr. About it and he said as long as I have been taking the pills the way I should I should be fine. The medicne is still in me system and so I shouldn't get pregnant.

The pill is not 100% effective!
