Well first things first if u had a period two days after u had sex then there is no way u would be ovulating on that day...

cos there ll be a gap of at least 14 days from the day you ovulate to the day when ur period starts....

As far as i am concerned the chances of you getting pregnant are next to nil....

And while taking ur pills remember that if you miss ur pills for a day u need to take two at the same time on the next day and if you happen to miss it for two days in a row then they are of no use for that cycle and you need to start all over again and use a barrier method for the rest of the time....

It ll take at least 6 months for you to conceive on an average after u have stopped taking the pills..

HOPE THESE SUGGESTIONS WERE HELPFUL

Dr O's answer sounds right to me. If you need peace of mind buy an EPT( early pregnancy test) They are very accurate. If you ever get pregnant -early prenatal care with a Dr. is the best thing to do.
There is something called the sponge method of birth-control that you can buy at a store or pharmacy.It has a plug like design with a sewn in handle that you use to remove it . It seemed messy to me. Another method is The Diaphragm which felt more protective than a sponge. A spermicide needs to be squirted around the edges of the diaphragm before insertion. I don't think you should remove it right after sex because you want to give the spermicide time to kill the sperm before breaking the barrier. I used these methods because I thought I was old enough to handle what sex leads to-pregnancy. I would suggest the 99% effectiveness of the pill for you because you mentioned you are young. I hope you can abstain from intercourse as much as possible asking tha Good Lord to help you and protect you while you also protect yourself.

I have 3 kids and I was on birth control pills with all! Everytime I took bc I always had irregular periods for the first couple of months-sometimes twice a month. The doc said it was normal-and that you have to take the pill regularly for at least 3 months before it is gonna work. Take a pregnancy test to be sure. Have safe sex-because there is no guarantee you will not get pregnant. Birth control will never work if you don't take it everyday on a regular basis. Good luck and be careful!

i've just went through something similar and am now 25 weeks pregnant. i was on the pill for 4 years,was never good at taking them on time and took them soon as i remembered. i was on a 28 day cycle and missed three days in a row and was told to stop them until the first sunday after my period.in the mean time i didnt think i could get pregnant that soon without taking them but sure enough when i was due i had the brownish blood which is old blood your body is pushing out from the previous period and nothing more. i was way over my due date when i took a test which was positive,finding out that i was 6weeks.the answer to your question is to wait until your next period is due, your cycle may be irregular and make sure to use protection because you can get pregnant right away if you aren't already.in the meantime theres onothing else you can do

it could just be your period is weird cuz you were on BC then off and now back on. keep taking the pill just in case and wait for your next period. if you don't get it when you start taking the placebo pills then take test. don't stop taking the pills though cuz if your not and you stop depending on how long it's been since you had sex you can still get pregnant. stopping the pill in the middle of a pack can hormonally force you ovulate in the following several days and sperm can live in your body for several days!

You probably confused your body a little with the different hormones you put in it depending on what kind of birth control but I think your fine...Your cycle will probably be off, just count from the first day of your period and count 28 days (if your still on the pill because you could have a different cycle) and thats when you start your period..

Yes, you could absolutely be pregnant. Birth control must be taken regularly for a few months before it is considered effective. If you skipped two months, you started over at 0 again. It will be two months of taking it regularly before you can ensure its effectiveness.

Your period could be a result of going back on hormones, especially if you started taking it again in the middle of your cycle. Hormones are fairly aggressive in how they maintain your regularity (and non-pregnancy!), but if you don't take them at the same time each day, you can have breakthrough bleeding. (Also if you are on something like Seasonale, breakthrough bleeding is extremely common.)

Use a back-up method until your pills are back in effect and good luck :)

i would say you have got your hormones out of balance by the way you take your pills. you need to take them on a regular basis if your not pregnant. it takes 30 days after taking the pill before it becomes effective. you really need to see your dr. and make sure everything is o.k. with you. make yourself a schedule for your pill and stick with it no matter what you say you are young but if your old enough to have sex which is a big responsibility then your mature enough to remem,ber thet little pill every day at the same time meaning either morning or night

Its really early to tell.But theres a chance that you may be.Why, you had sex after the 4 total days of period. You may or not. Plus if you had your period a few weeks ago ,it shouldn't be that hard to know.Good Luck.

its a good possiblilty , birth control raises your hormones to make your body believe u r pregnant when u stop , then start suddenly, you can easily get pregnant because your body is prepared for the condition
