i always thought it took a full month for the pill to become effective.

It's possible, although not terribly likely. You have a 20% chance of getting pregnant when you have unprotected sex around your ovulation time. I would try to figure out if you have ovulated/when you will. You can do this either by taking your temperature (take it the same time every day, and look for a 1/2 degree spike) or by using an ovulation test kit. I don't think taking the pills will hurt the baby, if there is/will be one. Also, if you've been on pills a long time it takes many women several months for your body to de-tox from the pills and start ovulating normally. I'd just hang out and wait and see! If you're really worried, wait two weeks and you can get a blood test done at your doctor that is more sensitive than home pregnancy tests.

if you miss the pill more than two days in a row you are supposed to toss your pack and start a new one. Depending on the brand, you need to be on the new pack for 2-4 weeks before it is 100% effective. You can definantly become pregnant. You shouldnt take the pill if you are pregnant, but what you have already taken shouldn't harm your fetus. You can take an early detection pregnancy test such as first response or clear blue eay 5 days before you expect your period. Good luck.

If your period is 3 weeks away more than likely you will not become pregnant cause you only ovaulate and have a chance of becoming pregnant around 14-15 days after your last period (if you have a normal 28 day cycle) but theres still a slight chance that you could be. you wont know till you miss your period. most doctors want you to wait at leat a week after you miss your period.its up to you if you want to stop taking the pills, i personally would. im 27 weeks pregnant and i didnt find out till my period was 9 days late.i found out on feb.23 when i went to the doctors.and i took a home pregnancy test on feb.1and it was negative. so its best to wait till you miss your period.some of the early symptoms that i experienced were sore breast, and lower stomach and back pains that i thought were cramps. and i also had alot of headaches. well good luck

How long have you been back on the pill?
If it hasn't been for at least a month, you could conceive. Honestly, it would be smart to go off the pill for right now and use condoms until you get your next period and start the pill again then. You don't want to be taking the pill if you could be PG.

It is way too early to tell if you are pregnant. You would not have signs yet if you just had sex this morning. But there is a possiblity that you are pregnent. Wait for your period and then take a test. You may not have any symtoms until a missed period but some birthcontrol can harm your baby and cause you to have a miscarriage. Call a doctor.

Yes, you definately can get pregnant since you've been off the pill for two weeks. That is way too long. It's a little to soon to detect any symptoms of pregnancy but I think the quickest way to find out is to buy a pregnancey test. I don't know how soon the pregnancy test can detect early signs but hey, I would still try.

Your at risk for pregnancy if you had unprotected sex after being off the pill for two weeks. After stopping and starting the pill you should use a backup method of birth contriol for a month. So that you body adjusts to the hormones. The ""morning after pill"" can be taken uo to 72 hours after unprotected sex to help prevent pregnancy. You wuldn't have signs of pregnancy for 4-6 weeks.

OF COURSE YOU CAN GET PREGNANT. SOME WOMEN HAVE WITHOUT EVER MISSING A DAY. THE PILL ISNT GOOD TO BE TAKING IF YOU ARE PREGNANT, BUT ITS NOT LIFE THREATNING. I TOOK MINE FOR 4 WEEKS UNTIL I DIDNT HAVE A PERIOD AND FOUND OUT I WAS PREGO. AND I ONLY MISSED 2 DAYS ON THE PILL! BEST THING IS TO NOT TAKE THE PILL UNTIL YOU START. WHICH MEANS NO INTERCOURSE EITHER. SORRY, ITS JUST THE HEALTHIEST IF YOU ARE PREGNANT.

well I think the best bet is to get off the pills for right now because if you are pregnant because the birth control is not good for the baby. Just wait a couple of weeks to see and go to the doctor and tell the doctor what been going on and see what they tell you.You might be pregnant but you can't tell right now just wait it out to see.

Keep taking the pill till your period comes on, take a test if it does not and see a doctor.
