Thank you for coming to us with your concerns. It is very likely that you become pregnant.
Missing the entire first week of a new pack of birth control pills puts you at risk. Having sexual intercourse at this time increases your changes of conceiving.
It is the constant level of hormones provided by a daily dose of active, hormone containing pills that prevents ovulation. Without that, your normal hormonal balance triggers ovulation.
Before you start a new pack, contact your gynecologist and report what has happened. Since this happened almost one month ago, a blood pregnancy test can be done.
