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 think I took two pills in one day. When I'm about to take my last pill i found out that there was no more pill left. Is there any chances that I will get pregnant?

If you miss one pill, then took it as soon as you were able to the next day, you would not have an increased chance of pregnancy.
I'm curious how the condom "broke", if you don't mind sharing?? Great for you two, in using a condom! I just thought I may be able to help prevent condom use failure in the future.
take care!

I did not want to tell him...he's always super careful I didn't want him to worry...not the smartest thinking on my part!

I know that feeling, and you do sound smart, since you know the flip-side of this: if you didn't want to worry him and ask him to wear a condom, you know you'd have an even tougher time telling him that you two are pregnant! With that in mind, have you thought about talking with him in advance, about the "what if" you miss a pill? There are SO many reasons women miss pills, and there should be no guilt-trip or panic, but just some advance planning. It's tough enough that 100% of the birth control is all on your shoulders, that I would hope he is happy to talk with you about what IF you miss a pill, due to illness, dropping it down the sink, accidentally falling asleep and forgetting...just being human, you know?! Would he like you to tell him in advance, would he like you to just say, "let's use a condom tonight", or some other "code word"? Just a thought, as this is so common for so many women!

I am usually very very good about taking my pills. I had just started a new pack this past sunday, on monday i went to take the pill and lost it! So i never took a pill for that day but continued taking the pill on time the rest of the week. My boyfriend and I had sex and he did not pull out..Should i be very worried or are my chances for pregnancy still slim?

Missing one pill, while taking the others correctly and consistently, would not be cause for concern, as the chance for pregnancy would be very, very slim. Did he refuse to wear a condom, or were there none available, or did you not want to tell him that you missed a pill?

i think i may be just bloated, or perhaps constipated. im not passing stools as often as i normaly would and it is quite difficult to do so. sorry to be so abrupt now but there thy are like small hard stools. i fell quite sluggish, kinda like i do before my period. i know my stomach always becomes harder before my period but if i get it as i usually do it wont be for another week, four-5 days after i finish my pill.
thanks

Let us know when your period starts, or if you have any questions about being constipated (if it lasts more than a few days).

I have a question now. i am on yasmin for over three at a half years. this month i ran two packets together to delay my period. on the third day of my second strip(monday) i missed my pill but i took it straight away tuesday morning when i had realised (8 or 9am). i then took tuesdays and every other pill at my usual time of 4pm. the following sunday i had unprotected sex with my bf. monday i went and i got the morning after pill. it was approx 29 hours after we had unprotected sex. i amjust wondering what are my chances of falling pregnant. i am not finished the current strip of pill until today week so am anxious.
