the Pill And Missed Period
Posted: 01-04-05 22:28pm

I'm on estrostep fe, and was told that it is still effective if pills are taken within 4-6 hours of the same time. This is sometimes what I end up doing because I get delayed in taking it. I took a full month, and only remember actually forgetting to take one pill, and I took it the next day as soon as I remembered. At the end of the active pill cycle, I started taking my next month, in order to skip my period because I was going on a trip. My boyfriend and I had sex during the first week pills of the new month, and the condom broke. It is going on day 4 of the placebo week of pills, and I have yet to have my period. What are my chances of being pregnant? Thanks.

There was this one time where a nurse told me that you can still get pregnant while taking the pill. I also have a aunt for got pregnant while she was taking the pill and she had twins. Now I am not saying that you are pregnant or if you are that you are going to have twins. Don't really know. But in truth birthcontrol of any kind effects people differently. Like me I can' t take the pill. And don't know if I want to take the depo shot again. If or when me and my hubsand has our first kid. What I would do is buy a home pregnancy test. If the test shows that you are then go to the doctor.
