Is Anyone Online Right Now? Missed the Pill... Posted: 03-26-07 13:38pm
im
curious because my period is a day
late...i have been taking Lutera OC for 3
months now and i recently missed a pill
last saturday, so i took 2 on sunday, one
1st thing in the morning, the next at the
usual time i take them, then a few days
later on Tuesday I forgot again! As soon
as i saw the pill pack and remembered i
took the pill around 12:00 then took the
pill for that day at 3:00 my question is
what is the probability of me getting
pregnant?? The instructions says if you
miss the pill take two the next day and no
backup is needed but do the chances grow
if i miss another one a few days later, or
am i safe?

I would think you would be safe. I was on
the pill for 7 years and forgot to take it
on more than one occassion. I took it as
soon as I remembered and didn't get
pregnant until I stopped taking them all
together. I would say relax. Sometimes
missing a pill would mess up my cycles
too.
