I have been on the pill for exactly 1 month and 1 day, on ortho tricyclen. I just started my second pack of pills today, the active pills. I just had my period about 4 days ago. My boyfriend and I today had unprotected sex (meaning he was not wearing a condom) and he came in me twice. I am worried that my decision was a very bad one, and that i might become pregnant? I read from previous posts that you can become pregnant and are more suseptible to becoming pregnant the week following your period. I also know that the three weeks of active pills provide enough protection for the last week of unactive pills, or the time you have your period. I am also concerned because I was not consistent with the time I took my pills everyday. I take my pills everyday roughly within 3 hours of a similar time, so anywhere from around 8-11 p.m. however some times I do not take the pill at that time, on the weekends i tend to take it at around noon, and I am worried that this inconsistency is also a problem.
should i be worried? I know that 8% of women could get pregnant even though they're on the pill.
please help me out! |
