Missing 1 Pill And Taking 2 Next Day Microgynon30 Posted: 06-06-07 08:36am
Ok i just finished my 7 day break and had
started my new packet of combined
microgynon 21 day pills. I has taken the
forth pill when the next day (due to take
my 5th) i was up with awful sickness and
upset tummy. therefor i missed the pill
for the whole of that day and took 2 the
next day. after taking 3 pills correctly
after this incident my partner went inside
me but didnt fully cum. I have read that
if you miss a pill totally one day you are
safe aslong as its only one you miss. With
my situation what would be the chances of
preg? Surely it would take a good week to
ovulate when not taking pills and 24hours
wouldnt cause ovulation in order to become
preg? I really appreciate your knowledge
and help. Thanks x

If you miss one pill, and take two the
next day, you are still protected. Don't
worry.
Also, you can still take the pill if you
are sick, but if you are throwing up, you
shouldn't trust that the pill worked. But
if it's just one day that may have been
messed up, you should be fine. It sounds
like you did the right thing and should be
protected.

Hi Posted: 06-06-07 14:57pm
You did not state how long you have been
on the pill. If you have been on them for
some time, you should be fine, because
yes, it would take your body time to
readjust and figure out "hey, we can get
pregnant now....but thats not entirely
true, because the pill is not 100%
effective........I would think you are ok
though. Good luck!

Yeah, chances are you are fine. Most
women do not ovulate just from being off
the pill for one day, but it can happen,
so make sure you don't make a habit of it!

Yeah, you're fine. In the instruction
packet it will state that if you miss one
and make up for it you do not have to use
back up. If you are ever concerned about
it , though, keeping condoms around is a
good idea. Especially if you have been
sick.
