Need Help. Missed 4 birth control pills
| Tue, 10-07-2003 - 2:43pm |
Dear Readers,
I missed 4 birth control pills. The first day of my last period I believe was between September 16-18, 2003. I miised my pills September 30- October 3rd, 2003 and possibly October 4th, 2003. I replaced them all when I remembered which was either the 3rd or 4th of October. I had sex with no back up method on October 4 & 5th, 2003.
What are the probabilities I am pregnant?

I doubt you're pregnant.
It's good that you took the missed pills as soon as you remembered. If you don't get your period within 3 days after finishing your current Pill pack, then you need a pregnancy test to be sure.
Welcome!
Unfortunately or fortunately, there's a very good chance you may become pregnant.
The thing is, when you are on the pill, ovulation is suspended by the hormones.
Regularity is thrown out the window when you're on the pill.
I think it's just a coincidence that the ovulation calendar coincided with your missed pills.
