Pregnancy And On the Pill Posted: 12-31-06 04:58am
Just a quick question. What happens if
you accidentally get pregnant and dont
know and take the till? Would it cause
miscarriage?
For the last 2 months I havent taken the
pill properly. I keep forgetting to
take it and have to let a period come
because I will start to bleed when I
forget. This month I started taking it
about 4 days after my period stopped.
I've never had nausea with the pill before
but I have it now for the last 5 days.
I use to take the pills for about 6 years
then stopped for 2 years, I restarted 2
months ago.
Any advice welcome x

You should find a method of birth control
you can use consistently. Like the patch
or a shot. Or a barrier method you only
need to think about when you are about to
have sex. It sounds like taking the pill
hasn't become a habit.
A good way to make it a habit is to keep
the pills by your toothbrush or on your
nightstand, that way you'll remember to
take them every day when you brush your
teeth or go to bed, get your cup of
coffee, whatever.
Good luck.

So if I was pregnant, would the pill harm
the baby?

No.. It would not.
Obviously if you are taking the pill then
you wish to not have a baby...
Your main concern should be getting
yoruself a method of birth control that
you can remember to take daily.

I dont mind having a baby, I am taking the
pill because my boyfriend wants me to.
So if I was pregnant and I stopped taking
the pill now (microgynon 30) would I bleed
like I normally do?
The reason I am having doubts is because I
feel sick everyday. I've been pregnant
before so I know how it feels like. I
dont remember ever feeling sickness with
the pill before.

Obviously your b/f does not want a baby if
he wants you to use the pill..
You would most likely not be pregnant, and
you would be risking preganncy later by
stopping the pill.
Morning sickness does not usually occur
until 4-6 weeks of pregnancy.. If you are
pregnant enough for morning sicknes, then
you are pregannt enough to take test.
You should consider that if a man wants to
use the pill, he does not want children
'now'. He could beocme upset and leave
because of an unplanned pregnancy.

Anything is posssible, if you are having
constant morning sickness, your in time to
take a pregnancy test. You need to find a
better form of birth control. Please stay
away from the shot. Its horrible and
you'll bleed for weeks straight. I am
very paranoid about forgetting my pill. I
take mine at 7pm, after I eat dinner so I
wont get sick. My stomach is very
sensitive.Do you have a cell phone? I
have my alarm set on my phone daily at
6:55 so I have 5 minutes to take my pill.
I also use a very loud and annoying tone
for the alarm...Keep that in mind

Agree with posts above, the best way to
dispel your doubts is to take the test, if
you haven’t taken it so far.
"the administration of microgynon 30 is
contraindicated during pregnancy. If
pregnancy occurs during treatment with
microgynon 30, further intake should be
stopped."
"accumulated evidence reports that
inadvertent exposure to these agents in
early pregnancy has not been associated
with an increased risk of birth defects."
