Went off pill mid-cycle.....
| Tue, 11-02-2004 - 10:30am |
Just wondering if there would be a possibility of getting pregnant???
I started taking Loestrin (bcp) and then went off it mid-cycle (probably around the time I would be ovulating). Could I have gotten pregnant a day or 2 after I went off the pill???
Sounds silly but I was just curious.....
Thanks!

If you were taking Loestrin correctly it should have been suppressing ovulation, regardless of where you were in your pack. Now that you have stopped BCPs your natural hormones will be trying to regain control of your cycle and you could ovulate in a few days. Unless you are using an effective method of contraception you are certainly at risk. I don't know if you could be pg from IC a day or two after stopping your pills (my guess is that you are not, as it takes a few days for your body to build toward ovulation) but if I were you I wouldn't be taking any chances. Let us know how you're doing, ok?
Good luck,
