If you miss a few of your birth control pills then have sex, can you get pregnant?

If I had missed three of my birth control pills, and on the third day had sex. Would that leave room for a chance of pregnancy? I’m not looking to get pregnant, it was just a question I was curious of.

Answer #1

If you skip 3 birth control pills then you need to throw away your pack and start a new one, with other words you are unprotected.

The general rule with birth control pills:

Skip one, take one as soon as you remember Skip two take two as soon as you remember and use extra protection for the next 7-10 days Skip three and throw away your old one and start a new pack and use protection as you would have if you started a new pack

Took one pill too many because you forgot whether you took the previous one, don’t worry and just continue taking pills as you should.

Answer #2

If I had missed three of my birth control pills, and on the third day had sex. Would that leave room for a chance of pregnancy?

Even if you miss NONE of your pills, there’s ALWAYS a chance of pregnancy. Missing pills just increases the chance.

Answer #3

Even taking birth control, its possible to get pregnant. Its stupid how people are convinced that their methods are foolproof.

Answer #4

Thanks! I was just curious. Yalls advice helped(:

Answer #5

It’s a risk you shouldn’t take if you don’t want to be a mommy.
