I have been taking the contraceptive pill for years now, an am now on my 3rd diferent one called Dianette.
>When i first started taking this pill I didn't wait for the first day of my period and only later found out that i was technically unprotected that hole month i was having sex, luckily I didn't get pregnant.
This month I'm in my 3rd and last week of taking the pill and have currentlt missed 5 pills. I once got told your actual chances of getting pregnant while on the pill even missing them is still extermely low. I need to carry on straight to a new pack without having my 7 days break as i'm going on holiday but this means i wouldnt know if i'd missed a period and may be pregnant.
As i never got pregnant in that month before i'm thinking maybe i cant get pregnant. help please :)
Hi, If you have missed pills in your 3rd week, it is correct that you take the new pack immediately without the pill free week, this will give you adequate protection against pregnancy. It is extremely unlikely that you are pregnant, if you have missed pills only in the 3 rd week .So please be reassured and do not worry.But make sure you take your pills regularly without amiss. Enjoy your holiday. Regards.
