What Are The Chances Of Pregnancy With Irregularity In Taking Birth Control Pills?

Hello, yesterday morning I had sex with my partner and he came inside of me. I am currently on the mini pill. I take it within 3 hours of the same time every night. However after yesterday morning I forgot to take my pill that same night. I just recently remembered but have not been able to take my missed pill or my pill for Saturday night. How will this effect me? Was I still protected? What are the chances of a pregnancy?

Hello and Welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

As you took pills before and immediately after intercourse the possibility of pregnancy is less. But as you missed the pill next day, better to take within 24 hrs and also that day pill. If you missed a pill completely for one day, continue remaining pills and better to use barrier contraception for one week. And if you miss your expected date of periods better to go for urine pregnancy test once.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
