I am 25 years old, I have been taking birth control since I was 18. I skipped 3 days of pills (a weds, thurs, and friday) On Thursday we had sex and he came inside of me, on Saturday we had sex again and he pulled out. The first timd we had sex was the 24th of the month and the 2nd was the 26th of the month. The first day of my last period was the 14th of the month. I am also taking an antibiotic that lessens the effectiveness of the pill. What are the chances that I became pregnant?

Hi I missed 3 of my pills last week Tuesday- Thursday took 1 pill Friday then back to normal, first week back after being on my period. I had sex on the Tuesday, then sat and Sunday. Could I be pregnant?! When should do a test?

Hello,
I was sick during wk 1 of my pills. I missed 2 days of pills and took them in one day. Unfortunately, I vomited the 2 pills (within 20 minutes), but continued taking pills that wk. During the second week, I was late taking Thursday and Friday's pills. I had unprotected sex with my partner on Friday and took the 2 missed pills that Friday night. Could I possibly be pregnant?

Hi,

I forgot to take my pills on my last week (thurs, friday) and took all 3 on Sat morning. I had unprotected sex that same day (Sat) 2x and I got my period on Monday. The last day of my period I had a brown discharge which is not normal and now 2 weeks later I have nausea. Is it possible I may be pregnant?

I missed the last 3 pills in wk 3. Instead of starting a new pack on Sunday and skipping a period, I decided to just start my period. So, my period came on Sunday. I had unprotected sex that week at the end on a Sat. I'm concerned that I could have ovulated given that I had missed my pills and potentially thrown my system off. Could I be preganant?
