I have read that some people have gotten pregant while on BC, if this is true does the BC pill effect the fetus?
I took my BC pill late for the month, have been having unprotected sex with my husband during this time, and have been feeling a bit "off". Slight nausea, tired, bloated. I took a pregnancy test and it came back negative, but if it was incorrect and I am pregnant and am still taking the pill will it harm the fetus?

The BC pill will not harm the fetus. You may be pregnant. You need to see your doctor.

It is not a definite that it will harm your child, I got pregnant while on BC and continued taking the pill a I did not know I was, because of this I had a miscarriage. There are hormones in the pill which can cause abnormalities in babies (the most common being an undeveloped penis in baby boys), my doctor has advised me that my miscarriage was probably caused by me taking the pill and my baby being 'deformed' due to this.
This is not definitely what happened to me however they can never prove it but I believe its important to make people aware anyway because it can happen.

It will not hurt the fetus if you catch it early on. If you take the pill for 3 months and then relize that you are pregnant than you could probably harm the baby. Just keep testing with home EPT's if you still dont have your period! Good luck

Well I took bc pills and was pregnant, didn't know I was, and my child came out just fine. I would consult with a doctor because, like I have ssid b4 every body is different.
good luck to you

My sister became pregnant while she was on the pill.Her baby was born healthy. She never knew she was pregnant until she missed her period. If you took a home pregnancy test and it came back negative, you should be fine. But if you miss a period; take another test.

go to the doctor and take a test there cause if you are preggy it can harm the baby.
