My girlfriend and I have unprotected sex and she lets me ejaculate in her because she is on yaz. Well the other day she missed her pill and we had sex in the evening. I ejaculated in her before she realized she missed the pill. Is there anyway she can become pregnant from missing one pill?

Brief Answer:
No problem at all

Detailed Answer:
Hi
I am Dr Mittal
I have read your query.

I can tell you that if she is on the pills regularly, just one missed dose is unlikely to affect pregnancy. The medicines should be continued as per schedule after the missed dose. There is no need to panic at all.

However, if you like, you can still try medicines like I Pill, which is meant to be taken within 72 hours after intercourse. This may help make it doubly sure.

Please feel free to contact me for further details.

Brief Answer:
missing one dose does not cause pregnancy

Detailed Answer:
Hi, I am Dr Mittal. I have read your query. I think I would be able to help you.

The fact remains that the missing of one dose of medicine is not going to cause pregnancy. Usually the hormones ate such that missing one dose is not going to affect her contraception.

However, If you want to be doubly sure, you can take some medicines that are available to be given withing 72 hours after intercourse. The market is filled with such tablets on different brands like I pill. She can choose any of them and continue with the regular medicines as usual.

I have tried to make it as simple as possible. I hope that the information helps you. Please feel free to contact us for more information. Best of luck. Dr Mittal.
