Is It Possible To Get Pregnant With Tri-cyclen Pill?

I had the Mirena IUD removed on Dec 28th, light bleeding for 5 days. Had unprotected sex on Jan 10th, and started tri-cycl pill on the Jan 12. Finished the pack and this is the 2nd day of the nonactive pills. Is it possible to be pregnant. Prior to the Mirena, I had the copper t for 10 years.

Hi there,
Welcome to HCM,

Since you had not taken any contraception after removal of the Mirena there is a possibility that you could be pregannt.

It would have been more prudent on your part to take an emergency contraception before starting the new pack of Tri-cyclic pills. Or you could have waited for your next period before starting the pack.

You should do a home preganncy test once you finish your non-active pills.
And start a new pack only after consulting a family physician or a gynecologist.

Hope this helps.
Regards.
