Can taking ortho tri cyclen birth control make you have a miscarriage?

Answer 1

What happens if you take birth control pills while you're pregnant?
If you continued taking your birth control pill because you didn't realize you were pregnant, don't be alarmed. Despite years of this accident happening, there's very little evidence that exposure to the hormones in birth control pills causes birth defects.

Still, the birth control pill is a potent estrogen. Lessons learned from women who took diethylstilbestrol-a synthetic estrogen that was later linked with cancer-to prevent miscarriage in early pregnancy suggest that such exposure should be minimized.

Once you learn that you're pregnant, stop taking the birth control pill.

Answer 2

Before getting a prescription for tri cyclen you are supposed to be given a pregnancy test. It is not the miscarriage that is the concern so much as the horrific birth defects that the medication causes. Miscarriage would be least of your concerns.

Answer 3

Only in the days when it's a fertilized egg not yet implanted. The pill changes the lining of the uterus making it harder for the fertilized egg to be there.

Once the egg is already implanted, it's unlikely to cause birth defects or miscarry if you are still taking the pill. For decades women have taken the pill and gotten accidentally pregnant while on it. And continued to take the pill till they discovered the pregnancy, and there's little evidence to suggest it hurts the baby.

Answer 4

They tell you not to take the pill while pregnant and trust me the
pill is useless when you are already pregnant.

Answer 5

Yes if it's early enough.
