Had Unprotected Sex Followed By Intake Of First Inactive Pill For Period Week Instead Of Last Active Pill Of The Month. Chances Of Pregnancy?

I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend on Saturday night. He ejaculated inside me like he always does. Yesterday(Sunday) was my last active pill for the month. Instead of taking that I accidentally took the first inactive pill for my period week. I did not realize this for a full 24 hours when I went to take my inactive pill today so i took the The last active one today instead. I'm really scared that I could of gotten pregnant from the semen that could of still been inside me. Please help.

Hi,
There is no need to worry as you have passed the projected ovulatory phase of your cycle; moreover, you have consumed the pill at once and this will compensate for the mistake. You can safely wait for your next cycle and only if you miss it, go for a pregnancy test with a fresh early morning sample of urine 3-7 days later. Pregnancy can occur only if you happen to ovulate at the time of the unprotected intercourse which in your case is remotely possible. Hope you find this information helpful. Take care.
