Hello, I would be happy to help you with your question.

While on birth control pills, your chance of getting pregnant is extremely low. Consider that without birth control pills the risk is about 15-20% per cycle, and with birth control pills, it is less than 5%. It is not zero, however. Also, skipping the placebo pills does not increase the risk of pregnancy.

I hope that this helps and good luck!
