Did you tell your doctor's office that you were OUT of birth control pills?! They would not turn you away, and would give you a sample pack to get you through until you could see your doctor. Please advocate for yourself next time, and let them know!

Also, since you have been off of birth control for at least a week, and it sounds like another week in the future, why are you choosing to have unprotected sex? And, it's every day?! Again, I'm more concerned about you not advocating for yourself, and would love to know what's going on? Are you OK? You can choose to use a condom, or you can choose to not have intercourse (there are many fun, creative sexual activities that you can both do to increase your intimacy without having intercourse). Does your boyfriend listen to you, and know that he is having unprotected sex?

Of course you know, that there is a chance of pregnancy when having intercourse and no protection. The more frequently you have unprotected sex, the higher your chances of having an unwanted pregnancy.

It is extremely important to use a condom or other barrier method if you are not using hormonal contraception (and, when you do start your new pack, it will be important to continue using alternate form of birth control for 7 days!).
