What are the chances I could be pregnant?

So I missed the pill three days in a row and had unprotected sex. I took the pill the morning after but forgot to take it again. Is there a chance I could be pregnant?

If you dont know the answer to this then you definitely shouldnt be having sex.:roll_eyes:

Yes but its to early to guess. How long have you been taking it? And maybe you should have doubled up a few days until you got back on track. Theres always a possibility even on birth control.

Congratulations lady!:baby:

Depends. Thereā€™s always a ā€˜chanceā€™, but realistically itā€™s incredibly low. Especially if youā€™re not near your fertile window.

Girl, take your pills and TRACK YOUR OVULATION. I use the period tracker app. Take a test if you miss your period, and consider yourself lucky if itā€™s negative but youā€™re playing Russian roulette at this point.

If youā€™re not call your dr and get a iud, its obvious you canā€™t remember to take your meds

If youā€™re having sex, even on BC, thereā€™s a chance you can be pregnant. Your chances are higher missing and so Iā€™d test as soon as possible. Most importantly though get educated on your body and your meds and get yourself into a routine that works! You will end up pregnant eventually doing it this way

Damn. Please set an alarm to take your pill. Or put it on top of your phone when you go to bed so itā€™s right there when you wake up.

Got pregnant 3 times on pill. 2nd ended in miscarriage

Well I got pregnant while NEVER missing a pill, No sick days etc so Yes you can get pregnant of you forget the pill!

If you miss for three days im pretty sure youā€™re not supposed to just keep taking them so irregular like that, could be more harmful than good. Also the longer you been on them better chances of your body adapting and less chances to get pregnant but any missed pills is still a chance you will because you can still even get pregnant on the pill. If you forget like that you should probably just come up with a better one for yourself. Stop taking these dont have sex , go to the docs get a pregnancy test if you miss your period and if youre not pregnant , get on something that you can manage better.

You might as well just stop taking the pillā€¦itā€™s not gonna work if you donā€™t take it like youā€™re supposed to and you could potentially hurt your baby if you get pregnant and are still half taking them. Serious questionā€¦
are you trying to have a( another )baby or wanting one? If not(now) Iā€™d recommend a different birth control I had an iud for years. There are quite a few different bcs you can get that you donā€™t have to remember every day.

Wow, all you judgemental women out there. Maybe she was unwell, or maybe there was something going on in her life that lead her to forget.

I canā€™t take the pill because I have issues with memory. I used to forget all the time before things like the depo and implanon were readily available.

I would suggest that you get on another kind of birth control if you canā€™t remember to take it and donā€™t want to get pregnant. Maybe an IUD would work better for you since they can stay in for a while and can be taken out whenever you want.

Definitely get something else. I never remember to take the pill so I got the ring and I love it

You can get pregnant taking birth control perfectly, so if you were ovulating I would say itā€™s a pretty good chance.

Just take morning after pill, or plan b or whatever. Then get a new form of birth control. The pill leaves too much room for mistakes.

She ask yes or noā€¦not your comments about not been responsible :roll_eyes::unamused::expressionless:

Thatā€™s really not responsible! Do you want a baby or you just plan on having an abortion? He is not going to be happy!

I got pregnant with my first child on the pill so I guess missing it is a higher chance? Iā€™m on the injection now touch wood it seems to work

Sometime I wonder why admins allow people to ask such nonsense questionsā€¦ :thinking::thinking:
Like do u know anything about what u r taking? Are you aware if u have taken an antibiotic or anything in that nature that can also affect your birth controlā€¦ some people r so stupidā€¦ I was always told there is never a stupid question but damn every day these question get more stupidā€¦ im almost guessing that admin just make shit up to post

Well yeah. Theres a reason u have to take it everyday at the same time. Its not a once a week pill.

Extremely high chance. If not taken around the same time everyday, itā€™s not effective

So. Maybe the pill isnt the best option for you. Iā€™d look into other birth control. Every single day you forget it it increases your chances of getting pregnant.

Of course itā€™s possible. Anytime you have unprotected sex you can get pregnant.

Extremely high chance.

You can still get pregnant on birth control. But no they donā€™t start working that fast.

I got pregnant after taking the morning after pill. I was not on birth control but I took Plan B the day after sex and tested positive 4 weeks later.

Id say you still have alot of the hormones in your system. Youā€™ll have to wait it out.

Where about in your cycle were you??

Because you used plan b 2 days prior, your uterine lining wouldnā€™t be strong enough for implantation so Itā€™s highly unlikely.

And if he didnā€™t pull out like he said he would, that is assault!

Itā€™s highly the birth control pills will not work with only taking them once, you have to take them regularly for several days for them to get in your system.

I guess you just have to wait and see. If you miss your monthly. But you would have alot of hormones in your system so the chances are slim.

The chances are high since you are engaging in unprotected sex. The only way to be 100 percent not pregnant is to abstain.

Personally i think this should be a question for a dr or nurse. Especially since you can still get pregnant even on birth control

You had unprotected sex = thereā€™s a chance of pregnancy

Stay sober and monitor your cycle. I have gotten pregnant on birth control. Itā€™s possible. But you donā€™t have to get back together with him if you are.

Birth control stops working upon first missed or late dose, but takes about 2 weeks to kick in depending on where you are in your cycle. Definitely a chance, but on the low end. You should consult your gynecologist ASAP.

Got pregnant 3 times on the pillā€¦always a possibility.

Find out how long it takes for your bc to take effect. They are all different. When I had the iud my doctor told me it started working that day but now the pill Iā€™m on now takes two weeks to start working

I wish youā€™d be a little more selective on what you post on here. This is the most ridiculous and unanswerable question. :woman_facepalming:t2:

You always could be, but taking Plan B was a good step against it.

No judgement at all ā€¦weve all made mistakes. This one could be costly though
Pill is only 99 % even when taken properly and takes time to work.
Plan B would mess up your hormones though so
I guess its a wait and see situation reallyā€¦

Pretty low. The Plan B stays in your system for 3 days

Well sorry to say but itā€™s too early to tell anyways. Regardless if it was a stupid choice or not itā€™s your life so your decisions will affect whatever you do good or bad so. Also stopping birth control or missing birth control does increase your chances. Just cause you took plan b doesnā€™t mean itā€™s going to work either. Itā€™s going to be a waiting n see thing for you and see if you get your period or not n if not then take a test a week after your period suppose to come if negative try again in a couple days n if still negative then you prolly not pregnant.
