Answer
Hi Sheena,

Thanks for your question. In your situation, what you did with the pills was probably the best decision you could have made. However, I would like you to do some research about the birth control pill and side effects and risks. I don't recommend it or any kind of hormonal birth control method because of those problems.

Also, even if you take all the birth control pills correctly or safely, there is still a chance of pregnancy. If you want to get a free pregnancy test, go to this website http://www.optionline.org or call 1-800-395-HELP. Another helpful website is http://www.heartbeatservices.org
