[|Human|] So I ve been taking birth control for years. On march 30 I had my period until April 3. I started my new pack on Sunday April 4. On Friday April 9th my boyfriend and I had sex. I missed my pill yesterday April 12,13 and 14 since I lost my birth control. Could I b pregnant since sperm could still be in me? According to an ovulation calendar, I think this is the time I would be. I found my BC and started to take it again..Please help me!
[|AI|]  Hallow Dear, Birth control by contraceptive pills is governed by the continuous action of the pills taken throughout the cycle. Hence, regularity in the consumption of pills is prerequisite for their success. However, missing a single pill or so does not take away the protection against the pregnancy. Missing up to 3 pills in a cycle is permissible according to WHO guidelines. When you miss pills like this, the ovulation calendar gets disturbed, and you cannot rely on fertility window.  Since you have missed three pills, there are good chances that you may conceive during this cycle. Wait for up to a week after finishing the pack of the pills if it is 21 pills pack, otherwise till you finisChatDoctorplete pack if it is 28 pills pack. By that time if you do not get menses, go for the tests for confirmation of pregnancy. Pregnancy test on urine is to be performed on overnight first morning urine sample 8-10 days after missed period. Done earlier, these tests may give false negative results. Alternatively you may opt for Beta Chat Doctor test which gives reliable results even few days before missed period. If you are pregnant, you may opt for Medical Termination of Pregnancy which is very safe and effective up to 9 weeks of gestation. I hope this helps you.
