The pill in only 99 percent effective so there is always a very slim chance, don't take antibiotics ant he same time, that's how I fell pregnant with my first, as the counteract the effects of the pill.\n\nHowever, if you are taking the pill the way the doctor or nurse told you to and haven't missed and then you should be fine, the pill is the best contraceptive in my opinion.

"If you want to become pregnant, the first thing you should do is call your doctor or healthcare professional about steps you should take to ensure a healthy pregnancy. He or she can help you decide when to stop using the birth control patch.\n\nAfter you have stopped, you may want to postpone conception until you start having regular periods again. Many healthcare professionals tell women to wait a few months to conceive, because a pregnancy can be dated more accurately if the woman has re-established her natural menstrual cycle after finishing birth control."

When I was on the pill, I had missed quite a few myself, and I had to take double doses, and I never got pregnant.  I'm sure it is possible, but in my opinion, it is highly unlikely.  Everyone forgets to take it on time all the time.  I believe you are still protected, but don't forget, even on the pill, you are never 100% protected.  The only way to totally be protected is to abstain from sex altogether.  Good luck.

There's no such thing as 100 percent effective birth control, so it is possible to become pregnant while on the pill.  Many times, however, women get pregnant while using the pill when they accidentally forget to take a pill, or if they're taking certain antibiotics.  Antibiotics decrease the effectiveness of the pill, so if you ever take antibiotics, you should use another form of birth control.

i could be wrong but i dont think your body needs to adjust. if anything it might take a week or so since your body is so used to the pill. but even pack says that if you "forget" to take a pill that it highers your chances for getting pregnant. Im assuming its the same when stopping the pill. I hope this helps if not then I would call your womens health doctor, they would definatly know.

Your best bet is to wait til your period starts, like the directions say ... the reason being that on the off chance you're pregnant, you shouldn't take the Pill, because it could be bad for the baby.  Once your period starts, it's safe to start taking them.  I know it's annoying to have to wait, but it's best to work with your body.

even on the pill and using condoms you can still get pregnant and std's (herpes, warts)\n\n(the pill does not start working for at least a month)

if you've jus come off the pill, give it 6 months for a period, longer go to your gp. if your trying for a baby, then dont worry at all, and if u dont want one, then its time to invest in a pregnancy test. Then head to your gp or local family planning centre depending on the result.

It shouldn't, any more than oral contraceptives do.  It contains roughly the same ingrediants.  So usually about a month or so after you've discontuned use, you can start trying to conceive and there shouldn't be any residual effects from the Nuvaring.

You should be okay if you've been taking it consistantly. You took it as soon as you remembered. If you don't get your period this month, take a pregnancy test anyways. Birth control does NOT harm early pregnancy or cause abortions so, if you do find yourself pregnant and do decide to continue the pregnancy you do not have to worry about taking the pills without knowing you were pregnant. Also, if you find yourself continuing to forget your pill, perhaps because of your busy schedule. You should see your doctor about other forms of hormonal birth contorl such as the Ortho-evra patch, the Nuva Ring or the Depo-provera shot. Good luck!

After taking at least 7 of the white (active) pills.  But waiting for 4 weeks would be more prudent.  Also, just because you are taking OCP's does not mean there is no risk of becoming pregnant.  There is a small risk if you take them perfectly as described (same time each day, etc.), and the risk increases if not taken 'perfectly'.  Also, does not protect against STD's.

I already told you. That you could be pregnant because you were having unprotected sex. The bleeding that you experienced was due to your going off birth control and possibly due to your miscarriage. It was hormonal. It does not mean that you were not ovulating. Since you were taking birth control, it is going to throw off your cycle a little bit and your ovulation will be sporatic. It could happen anytime! \n\nWhen a woman is not taking birth control, typically she will ovulating half way through her cycle but, birth control supresses ovulation and some women ovulate irregularly even during their period! Since you went off birth control and were only on it for 2 weeks, you were not protected and could have ovulating the first day off the pill or a few days later when you started to bleed. The only time that it is safe to have sex while off active pills is if you took at least 21 active pills in a row. You did not. You may have ovulated. \n\nTake a pregnancy test  because you had unprotected sex and talk to your doctor about getting sterilised because you seem to need it.

ANY time you have unprotected sex there's the chance of becoming pregnant.  If the incident happened less than 72 hours ago you can go to a doctor for the morning-after pill.  Otherwise you're stuck with waiting until you expect your next period to show up.

If you are on the pill, skip the suger pills (last week) and go right into your next pack. If you aren't, then go to a doctor right away and get him/her to get you a script for something that might be able to prolong things.

Those pills are sugar pills that do not have hormones in them. When on these pills should be when you get your period It is unlikely that you can get pregnant while on these, but I feel its better to be safe than sorry.

Actually - the answer is no. \nIf you have been on a pill for over a month and switch brands without stopping using a pill, you are not able to get pregnant as the hormones remain regulated.\n\nI've attached a link that goes into a small amount of detail pertaining switching birth control pills.
