Q: 

Can you get pregnant from missing pills after unprotected sex?

I am a first day starter and missed the first pill of my pack (started a day late) I take Yaz. according to the pill pack, it says missing only one in the first week requires no back up protection. At the end of that first week (The day after the last day of withdrawal bleeding) I had unprotected sex, though my partner withdrew. On Tuesday and Wednesday (the sex was on sunday) I missed my pills, and doubled up on Thursday and Friday. What are the chances of pregancy?

I took my pill on Thursday, had sex that night, took my pill Friday, I then forgot to take it Saturday and Sunday but doubled up Monday and Tuesday, am I at risk of being pregnant?

Hello, I'm a bit nervous here but I was told that I should be fine. I'm on birth control and my boyfriend and I had unprotected sex last Thursday, but on Sunday (3 days later) I had missed my pill but took it as soon as I remembered Monday morning. Will I be covered?

Hi Susan, a week a go (Thursday) I had protected sex but he finished on my butt and I wasn't sure if it dripped down or not. The next morning I forgot to take my pill like usual so I did later in the day and ever since that kept taking it at my normal time in the morning. Does that raise my risk?! I'm really nervous all my friends don't think so but what do they know

I think I'm in a similar situation.
I forgot to start my next pack yesterday and had unprotected sex with my boyfriend. Please can someone advise if I should be okay? I only remembered on my way to work so can't take yesterday's and today's pill until I'm home. Not that it'd prevent pregnancy anyways...! But a little reassurance?
