everytime i read the answer to this question everyone says something different. does anyone know a site that i can read for myself? since i know that having un protected sex anytime can lead to pregnancy i want to know if i should stop the pill and wait for a test [which i will have it seems wait atleast 2 weeks]. i just want to know if it is safe or unsafe if there is even the slightest chance i could be pregnant. can anyone reccomend some legit sites?

i would not rely on any site......you should probably see a doctor and discuss it with him....different pill brands could affect pregnancy differently....so a doc would be able to advice you specifically for the pill you are currently taking....

If you are taking the pill daily as directed and especially at the same time every day then you should be safe. From what I have read everything pretty much says to continue taking the pill until you know for sure that you are pregnant. If you stop taking the pill just because you think you are pregnant, then you are setting youself up to get pregnant. Keep taking it! Im sorry i dont remember the exact sights that I read this. Google it.

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.

Dont stop! Keep takin the pill. If your not prego then you loose that time. Keep taking it even if you think you are. There are a ton of tests out there that you can take in advance. And if your still not sure, talk with ANY doc. Try pregnacy-info.net

You should go to the doctor right away. Do not take anymore pills until you are sure of the pregnancy or not.

Stop the pill, use a backup bc method and contact your doctor. Once you are sure you are not pregnant than you can start your pills again.
