QuestionHi my name is Wendi,
I started my birth control packet late, well 4 days late. I skipped those missed and picked up where I should be. Now that I have missed those days in the beginning of my cycle would and will there be a possibiliy that I could get pregnant? I did have sex (with my husband) last night and I am counting in my head and I am at 14 days yesterday. Please answer this question for me. My concern is that my husband is on a medication that the Dr. recommends you do not get pregnant on. He was diagnosed with RA and it frightens me to even think I might be. But, please be honest with me
Thank you for you time.
Wendi
Answeri cannot give a 100% accurate answer here as you might know. judging by your description, since you missed the 1st 4 pills of your packet, if you had unprotected sex during those 4 days as well as during the rest of this cycle, you have a pregnancy risk.
if it has been over 7 days since you had unprotected sex, take a home pregnancy test or see your doctor.
and remember to use a condom for the rest of this cycle to be safe.
(you should backup my answer with the instructions for your particular pill brand)
