I have been taking Cyclessa for 5 months now. I've never missed a pill and usually take it around 715-745pm. Well tonight I forgot to take it until around 10pm. I had sex about two days ago. I don't know the hour span of time that makes it a "missed" pill. This pill was the 3rd pill of the second week. If my boyfriend ejaculated inside me, is there a chance I could get pregnant because I was late?

Hi aleesun, welcome!

This board considers +/-2 hours of your pill time to be ‘on-time.’ So, you really weren't that late. One pill in the middle of the pack is nothing to worry about. Anything later than 8 hours is a missed pill. I think you should be fine.

Good luck,

as long as you took it you should be fine....now if you missed it completely I would test....but in your case I wouldn't....
