I’ve got pregnant and I am on the pill! How is this possible? I won’t say which brand, because they promise 100%protection for every brand. Can you believe this? I was totally sure a relaxed that I am safe and I wasn’t skipping the pills of anything else.

Well, I am surprised that you’ve got pregnant while you on the pill. I have two explanations you may forget pills or take them at the wrong time of day, or delay starting a new pack of pills after the last pack has finished. Or perhaps, you are overweight. Women who are overweight are more likely to get pregnant while taking birth control pills than women of normal weight; they have more liver enzymes, which help metabolize the hormones in birth control pills: "That would also cause the pills to be used up more quickly”.

IUD's are not 100% either! There have been women who have been pregnant when they have had an iud in. Some women are just very fertile! Good Luck! Wink
