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?

Hello, I have been on lutera/orsytha for the past 3 years - I normally take my pill on time every day at 3pm. I had unprotected sex on Thursday late night and he finished inside of me. On Friday at 5pm I realized that I forgot to take Thursdays pill and doubled it up with Fridays. Today is Sunday and I had been debating wether or not I should be buying Plan B even though I don't feel as though I need to. Please help, thanks!

Hi! Im on my 6th day(4th month of oral contraceptive) and forgot to take my pill 15 hours ago, that is 10:30 am and my husband and I had unprotected intercourse 9 hours before that missed pill. I took that missed pill and the pill that i should take that day around 3:00 am because im so worried that i might get pregnant. And today i took my pill on the same time i am taking it that is 10:30 am. Should I be worried?

the last day of my active pill was on 6/14 and I forgot to take it. The next day, my boyfriend and I had unprotected sex for a short time and he didn't ejaculate, and I only remembered that I missed a pill after that. I took two pills at the usual time I take them, but it was one active pill and one inactive pill. Today is the fourth day into the week of inactive pills but I take the fourth pill later on. I still hadn't had my period. is there a possibility that I'm pregnant? Please reply as soon as possible

Hello!
I'm on the third week of the pill and took them all, except yesterday that I forgot to take the pill. Today I took it when I remembered but way past 12 hours the scheduled time.. Two days ago I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend. Is there any risk of pregnancy?

Hello, i forgot to take my birth control on 6/6/15. But I took 2 the next day (6/7). Today, June 10, I had unprotected sex with my bf & he ejaculated inside of me. Do I need to worry?

Hi Ty,

Since you made up for the missed dose and have not been sexually active, there is no risk for pregnancy.

Continue taking the remaining birth control pills at the same time each day.
