I've been on birth control for 2 months and was wondering if you could get pregnant while you were taking the reminder pills. I didnt know since they are just "blank" pills instead of the "active" pills.

You can get pregnant on your active pills. Whether you are taking the active pills or the inactive pills they are 99.9% effective. The active pills would still be in your system. You're ok.

You can get pregnant at any time on birth control, whether it be your active pills or your reminder pills...
You have about a 1% chance of getting pregnant.

You can technically get pregnant while taking any of your birth control pills, the pill is not 100% effective in preventing pregnancy. Its only like 99% effective and thats if the person taking them is pure perfection and never misses a pill.
So yes hun, but not because theyre blank.

No. Although the reminder pills are just blank, if you use your pill pack properly, you should not get pregnant. The reason for the blanks is to give your body a break from the hormones so you have your period.

When you take the reminder pills you are supposed to have your period. I know I have been on the pill many times over. They are just pills without any active ingredients...You are just supposed to have your period. That is all. UNLESS your b/f likes to have some fun during your period, that is up to you guys and that is not for us to know.

No.
If you have been taking your pills as directed, you shouldn't get pregnant. You're on your withdrawal bleed during that time and the pill prevents ovulation. With the pill's hormones in your system, your chances of getting pregnant during the blanks is zero.

Ive been on birth control for a few years no and have never gotten pregnant on them. Those are the pills you are on your period or about to be so you wont be ovulating when you take them so you wont get pregnant

Yep. It's just the same as if you skipped a day altogether. Those pills are just placebos to keep you from forgetting to start up again after your period.

My wife states "birth control is birth control" - go ask a doctor if you are asking me.
