you may be pregnant - even not taking it for one day can allow you to get pregnant. When you read the insert for your pill it will tell you to use a second method of birth control for so many days after you miss a pill. You really need to try to take it around the same time every day.

The pill has a 99% success rate when taken correctly, so you can get pregnant even when taking the pill correctly. Missing a few days and doubling up actually increases the chances of you having a blood clot. I don't think there is a mathematical model for calculating the chances of pregnancy when you miss one or two doses but it does increase the chances.

Yes, it can mess up your periods and yes, you can get pregnant if you miss doses.
The pill is only like 98% effective, WHEN TAKEN AS PRESCRIBED.
Get the Nuva ring or the shot if you can't remember to take one pill a day.

Yes. Missing a pill or two can definitely mess up your cycle, as well as diminish the protection. If you miss at least two pills you should use a condom too, to be on the safe side.

If you messed up your pill and had sex maybe you should go take a test make sure your not pg ... cause messing up your pill is not really good... cause even when you miss your pill usually you get your period ....maybe its just stress..

A little bit info -yes.
Knowledge?
Well, I am on the pill even though my tubes are tied.
Why, to regulate my periods and i have to be faithful to each pill for about 3 months to get "regular' period.
So, dont worry and relax. But just take to make sure take a test -preg.center will take a test for free.
then if your not "be faithful" more. Best Wishes.

nah, I think you're ok. I've missed mine a few times in the same month, and when that happened I just started my period a little late. Just in case you think you may be pregnant though, I would go to see your OB-GYN and see what his/her recommendation is. If they can't tell if you're pregnant yet, he/she may want you to stop taking the pill just in case.
Good luck, and I hope everything works out.

Take a pregnancy test. You probably are. You have to take the pill everyday! And even then its on 99% effective! I got pregnant on the pill and NEVER missed a day! PLEASE see a doctor!
