Does Irregular Usage Of Contraceptive Pills Prevent Pregnancy?

Hi! I had my mirena removed on October 13 which was on a Tuesday! The same night at 9:00 I started taking cryselle without my period! I skipped the first 2 pills & took the tuesday pill & took every pill after at 9:00 every night! I took the first 2 pills I missed in the first week, in the third week! So I took 2 pills last Tuesday & 2 pills last Wednesday! Am I covered from pregnancy?

Hi
Welcome to HCM
I have gone through your query, I will try to give you suggestion which will be helpful to you

It is said that if you have missed more than two pills, there is chance of pregnancy, so it is better to use some other mode of contraception. Now i would suggest you to wait till your period and if there is delay, go for urine pregnancy test after week of missed period and with morning sample.

This provisional advice provided by me is based entirely on the input provided to me. I would suggest examination by the doctor.

I hope this suggestion might be of some help to you.
Take care.
I find this answer helpful
