Could I be pregnant?


Question Posted Wednesday November 17 2010, 9:54 pm

I have been taking orthocyclen birth control pills for nearly 2 years now. I have never once missed a pill, until just recently. I missed the very FIRST pill of a new pack (right after I stopped taking the placebo pills) and I am now late to have my period. I took the pill the very next day that I remembered, around 12pm. My normal time to take my pill is around 4:30pm. My boyfriend and I had unprotected sex 5 or 6 days after this occured and now I am late. Could I be pregnant, or could it just be from stressing so much about it, or could it be that my period is a day late, due to taking my pill a day late?
Any comments would be a great help. I could really use some reasurance.
Most websites I've found said that it was alright not to use an emergency contraceptive, but I have also read that by missing one of the first pills in your pack puts you at more risk of pregnancy.
I'm just really scared and confused and any answer right now would be better than none.
Thank you so much.

Chances are small, but there is always a possibility - taking the pill at a different time can put you at risk.

I think the best thing to do is to take a pregnancy test. Also visit your doctor to make sure you aren't. good luck girl, you'll be in my prayers. <3Nikita<3
