Answer
It's possible that you could be pregnant, Kassandra, but please check with your doctor about this. When you don't take the birth control pills correctly, you have more chance of pregnancy. Even if you have "protected sex", it's not really 100% safe to prevent pregnancy.
Missing some pills and taking them late means greater chance of pregnancy. Please email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com and let me know what happens. Hope to hear from you soon. P.s.
