im taking estrostep. I recently started taking it again to avoid pregnancy. It says on the package to take it during your cycle but i waited till around 2 days after and all the while having sex. i was on my 5th pill of my first week and had sex and was ejaculated in 3 times. are my chances of getting pregnant VERY high? whats the deal with the pills how long do they take to start working effectively?

Based on what I've read in packages of birth control pills they say it can take a week to be effective at protecting against pregnancy but I would recommend checking with your doctor as well (after the holiday) to see what they say.

usually it takes a month to be effective.. so being that you just started up on the pill and you were late starting.. and you didnt use protection... the chances are huge.. actually very high.. that you could become pregnant.. and honestly you should of went and got the morning after pill .. you know plan B..

use a condom. even if its the very thin ones while you use the pill. it will reduce your chances, plus u wont be so you wont be so scared all the time.
