I missed one pill Thursday night, in my third week, but made it up as soon as i woke up on Friday morning. I also took my pill about 3 hours late on Saturday night, which would have been my last active pill. My boyfriend and I had sex soon after. We used a condom, but it broke. He had already went shortly before we had sex. He went inside of me not knowing the condom broke, but he barely went. What are my chances of getting pregnant?

I'm very nervous because I've always taken my pill (Yarina) just about perfectly. But I'm currently traveling, I accidentally put my pills in my checked baggage and my suitcase got lost. So far I have missed today's (Saturday) pill (4th pill of the 1st week). But I also had unprotected sex with my husband yesterday (Friday). If my suitcase arrives tomorrow morning(Sunday) I will take two pills at my regular time (9am). But if it does not arrive, it's possible I will only get to the pills later tomorrow (Sunday) or Monday evening, when I get home. I'm pretty clear about how to take the missed pills when I get them, but I'm very nervous about the risk of pregnancy. Any advice?

I missed two pills this month (one the first week and one the second week without doubling up after missing the pill). I'm two days after missing the second pill (in my second week, still another week of pills) but now I have a slight pink discharge today. My husband and I have had unprotected sex the day before and after the second missed pill. Am I at risk of getting pregnant?

Is there a chance of me being pregnant? I never realized I was behind a day in my pills until it was on the weekend and I was supposed to be starting my sugar pills. I took regular pill and sugar pill together the day I noticed I had gotten behind. I have been on my sugar pills all week and have not gotten a period. I usually get a five day period. Is it just a fluke?

Hi, Susan
It is a bit emergency situation in my brain, I really hope you can answer this soon. I forgot my pill (ortho tri-cyclen) on Sunday and Monday. I usually take them around 11 pm. Then on Tuesday morning, I realized that I had missed two pills, so I took one pill in the morning, and one pill at night. Then on Wednesday, I took one pill in the morning, and took another one at my usual time: 11pm. So now I am on track. But I had an accident of having an unprotected sex with vaginal ejection on Wednesday night. Should I take plan B as soon as possible?

Hi!
I am really worried because I haven't gotten my period for more than a week now. I am taking Lo Loestrin Fe and have missed one last blue pill on the 4th week right before the 4 placebo ones. I had unprotected sex the day after missing the pill and had only remembered taking the pill for the night I missed and the pill for that day after having sex. What are my chances of being pregnant? Thank you
