Birth control Pills And Pregnancy Tests
Posted: 05-31-07 23:33pm

my boyfriend and i have had unprotected sex. and my period was supposed to come on monday but i used my bc to skip it because i was on vacation. when i got home on wednesday i took a pregnancy test just to reassure myself. it came out negative. how reliable is the test and will bc affect the results?

Birth control will not affect the results. The test will be accurate if the unprotected sex was 3-ish weeks ago. You should not be pregnant if you are taking the pills correctly.

i usually take them between 7 and 9 every morning. it just usually depends on when i wake up. but people have told me that 2 hours isnt a big deal.

It's not a big deal until about 6 hours.
