NOOO!! threw up my yaz b.c. then had sex a few days later


Question Posted Monday July 28 2008, 10:32 pm

okay I am definitely going to start using condoms after this.

I'm on Yaz birth control and I took my pill about 9 PM and threw up at 2 AM. well I never took another pill or anything because I wasn't sure if it was absorbed.

I know you're supposed to use a backup protection method for seven days if you missed a pill.

welllllllll. I had sex without a condom five days after throwing up. He didn't cum inside of me or anything. (but I know pre-cum and all that shit)

soooo....am I going to be pregnant now=[=[??

I'm very very paranoid about this and I'm not sure if my pill was absorbed before throwing up or if having unprotected sex five days later is okay.

HELP!!!

I'm on YAZ too, but I was under the impression that the pack said to use a back up method after you've missed 2 consecutive pills. I miss pills all the time, and the make them up the next day. You most likely aren't pregnant, though it is always possible. Never forget that.

If you had the pill in your system for at least a few hours, you shold be fine. Birth control is very effective, so don't stress out.

i dont know anything about yaz, but i've had unprotected sex many times where he didnt cum in me, but there could have been precum.
and i have never gotten pregnant.
i'm actually starting to question the whole precum thing.
so i'm saying that you're probably not pregnant, as long as he didn't cum.
good luck.

It is possible you may have become impregnanted; however, I would chalk it up more to typical hormonal birth control percentage.

I say this because you typically do not have to worry if you've thrown up your pill as long as it's been in your system for about 3 hours or so unless you have an abnormally slow metabolism. If you thrown up a pill before the 3 hour mark or so then you should immediately take the next pill in the pack so you're still protected. THEN, you will have to see your doctor as to what to do next because if you end your period earlier than usual (making you have 8 days of inactive pills instead of 7) then you may not be covered.

Remember that the hormonal birth control isn't 100% effective. It is only 99% effective with PERFECT usage, which means you do not gain or lose weight, take the pill at the EXACT same time each day, do not experience stress or illness, etc. It is actually only about 92% effective with typical usage so you should always be using another method of protection just in case it fails.

Continue taking your pills as normal. If you need to, purchase a wristwatch with an alert on it and have it go off every day at the time you need to take your pill. You should do everything possible to take the pill at the proper times as to not decrease it's effectiveness any more.

If your period is late or non-existant this month then you should pick up a home pregnancy test. You will have to wait a few days after your period is late to get an accurate read-out so it's probably not best to take it too early. If the test shows positive then you are for sure pregnant. If the test shows negative and your period still hasn't shown up then you should make a doctor's appointment to have a pregnancy test done there (more accurate than the home versions).

I hope things will be fine and you won't have to go through the mess of an unexpected pregnancy so early in life. Please remember to always use another form of birth control on the pill as well. If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask me :)

If anything wait until you are supposed to get your period |i know there is set time during the month, I've taken bc before| if you don't get it or its irregular. Take a pregnancy test or go to the doctor. Hopefully I helped. =]

Love,
Kimmy.

Kay, calm down.
I've taken Yaz, still do, and I've been in the same predicament as you have.

I didn't end up getting pregnant, you won't either.
You're fine. Just as long as it wasn't the first pill you've taken of it this month, you won't get pregnant. =]

Hope I helped, let me know.
