Both high and low dosages work the with same effectiveness. There isn't any difference. The trick is that the low dosage needs to be taken at the same time each day. With a high dosage, you are more "covered" if you forget to take one for about 12 hours. With a low dosage pill, you will also find you are unable to "skip" a period. The higher dosage pills allow you to sometimes continue on with the active pills and not take the sugar pills. You with therefore not have a period and therefore "skip" your period one month. Doctors prefer you to be on the lowest dosage pill that works for you. I took the lowest dosage pill for seven years with no problems.

You have only been taking the pill for 3 months havent taken it for a month me and my bf do either the method or im on top could I be prego?

Yes. Position does not matter in getting pregnant; anytime you have sex, in any position, you can get pregnant. There is no 'method' that works for preventing pregnancy, birth control is very effective but only if taken according to the directions, but do remember that even birth control is not 100% effective.
