Can you get pregnant if you switched from taking the shot to birth control pills but no longer take the birth control pills?

Answer 1

It is possible to get pregnant when changing Birth Control pills. If you have not been on birth control for at least 2 months, you should use a back-up method, such as condoms, for the first week of starting your new birth control, to avoid putting yourself at risk of pregnancy.

Answer 2

If you were on the shot but you switched to taking birth control pills, but you do not take the birth control pills anymore, you have a high chance of pregnancy if you have been having unprotected intercourse. All the active hormones from the birth control will have little or no effect after 3 days of not taking birth control.

Answer 3

If you start the birth control pill on schedule, no later than the day on which you would have started the next cycle of the birth control patch, you are protected during the switch. If you were late in starting the pill, you may not have protection until you've taken the pill correctly for seven days.

Answer 4

yes you can conceive when switching pills.

Answer 5

As long as you started the shot on or before the day you were supposed to start your next pack, you have continuous protection while switching from the birth control pill to depo provera.

Answer 6

There is no form of birth control that is 100% effective except for abstinence. They are all normally 99.9% effective in preventing pregnancy. So there is always that 1% chance.

Answer 7

If you start Depo Provera no later than you were supposed to start your next pack of birth control pills, there is no interruption in protection.
