Is Pregnancy Possible While Missing A Birth Control Pill Dosage?
i have been on levlen for 4 months now and have not missed a pill until yesterday. my husband and i had unprotected sex last night and i did not realize until this morning that i forgot to take one pill. i took yesterdays pill and todays pill and also went and got the plan b pill and took it. we already have a 4 month old and are not ready for another. i also take my birth control, back to back so i do have not had a period for about 3 months, as the first month back on it i did have one, even though i was still taking the pill. what are my chances of being pregnant
