If you've missed one birth control pill, what are the odds that you will get pregnant? Any insight will help, thanks!

More then likely you are fine. But you better be more careful if you had a baby 3 months ago and don't want to be pregnant again.

Ovulation is the most fertile time in a woman's menstrual cycle. If you have periods at regular intervals (around 28 to 31 days apart), then you're probably ovulating about 14 to 16 days after the first day of your last period. You can concieve anywhere from approximately 4 days before to 4 days after ovulating too. So the odds are pretty good. About 50/50.

your most fertile time is when you ovulate which tends around 14 days after the start of a period. Hormonal birth control pills can make ovulation totally off so missing ANY pills can cause a pregnancy.

If you miss a pill it can cause your body to release an egg. Use condoms for the rest of the month as a precaution.

.My wife got pregnant while on the pill!! Not a 100%. The most fertile time is on or right before your period!! Ovulating right before your period.

you ovulate 15 days {release an egg} before your NEXT period...pay attention...if you menstrate every 30 days, then u would ovulate on the 15th day; however , if u menstrate every 40 days, you would ovulate (release an egg) on day 25 after your last period and 15 before your next period. therefore, it periods r irregular (not the same days in between) always use protection. actually, ive heard of someone getting pregnant WHILE

if you only missed one pill you should be fine! skip that one if your past the 3-4 hr mark and get back on schedule with your next dose.

You can get pregnant ANYTIME you have unprotected sex even if you're on the pill because it's NOT 100% effective.

The most fertile time is when you are ovulating.. Ovulations begans approximately after you have your period.
