Can you get pregnant if you are on and off the pills?
You can get pregnant each and every time you have sex, whether it be with a condom, pills, both, or no protection at all.
You haven't been taking your pill properly should you worry about being pregnant?
Yes! You should really worry about becoming pregnant, or currently being pregnant. Birth control pills are only 99.9% effective when taken every day at the same time each day. If you miss a day of pills, you should double up the pills; meaning, next day take 2. If you miss more than 3 pills you need to quickly use a back-up method; example: Plan B, if you had unprotected sex within 78 hours and have missed pills. You should really take a pregnancy test because you have not been fully protected because you have not been properly taken your birth control pills as directed.
How long will you get pregnant after you stopped your pills for a short time example two weeks on birth control pills?
Nine months. There is a chance that you can get pregnant from not taking your dose at around the same time each day (2-4 hours outside of when you usually take it.) If you have not taken your contraceptive pill for two-three consecutive days, you are unprotected. At two weeks, consider yourself completely unprotected.
Is there any possibility of pregnancy while taking contraceptive pills regularly?
Yes. If taken perfectly, at the same time each day, with no missed doses, there is about a 0.5% failure rate; meaning that 5 in a thousand women will become pregnant each year, even if they take their pills perfectly. Even vasectomies and tubal ligations have failure rates, though lower. The only perfect contraceptive is not having sex.
What is the likely hood of getting pregnant on birth control?
Birth control is 99% effective IF taken properly. This includes taking it the same time every night, not missing any PILLS, not taking anti-biotics etc. Each time you miss a pill or, are taking anti-biotics etc, your chances of becoming pregnant increases.
How high are the chances of getting pregnant if you have taken pills on a slightly irregular schedule meaning fluctuating times then having unprotective sex during the middle phase of inert pills?
When you mean irregular schedule do you mean that you missed days or you just took them at different times each day? As long as you take you pill everyday you are ok and no baby it will make. Miss pills of several days or week and a baby you shall have.
Can birth control pills and appetite suppressant be taken together?
I depends on the brand/dosage of each medication. I recommend asking your doctor.
Can you skip the sugar pills with the mini pill?
Ack! There are no sugar pills in the mini pill! There are only active pills, 28 of them in each pack, and you must take one daily in order to avoid pregnancy. If you start skipping seven of them every month, you're going to get pregnant!
Can you get 'pregnant' if your on birth control?
Yes. Birth control is 99% if effective IF taken properly. This would include not missing any pills, taking them at the same time, using back up form of contraception (ex: condoms) for 30 days after taking anti-biotics etc. Each time you miss a pill, your chances of becoming pregnant is raised dramatically.
Can you get pregnant if you missed 3 days without taking your birth control pill?
Yes, you can easily become pregnant if you have sexual intercourse and miss 3 days of birth control pills. You can take an emergency contraceptive, such as the Morning After Pill or Plan B. These emergency contraceptives should be taken soon as possible after unprotected intercourse, however, EC's,(emergency contraceptives) may be effective and can still be taken after 5 days after unprotected intercourse) Since you have missed 3 pills, it is best to use a back up method such as condoms. Be sure when you start you new pack of pills to take your birth control everyday at the same time because that is the only way to be 99.9%+ protected from pregnancy. Each time you miss a pill you effectively increase your chances of becoming pregnant.
If you're on birth control and you just shorten the weeks to six days not using the last the 7th pill in each week is it harmful?
The pills are designed to be taken as prescribed. To do otherwise risks that you will get pregnant (you are shorting yourself on the amount of hormone you are taking and messing up the menstrual cycle) or other problems. Why not just take the whole prescription??
What if your friend has giving you a strip of her pill is it OK for you to use and not get pregnant even if your boyfriend and you dont use a condom?
Girls, if you use each others pills its okay but you have to make sure its okay to your friend so that she cant get pregnant if she misses a day. You can still get pregnant if you only use it once and its unprotected sex.
