Does Intake Of Birth Control Pills Cause Irregular Periods?
I take birth control pills but skipped two pills. after that i continued taking them. but two days after i started taking pills, I had unprotected sex with my partner. My period is late by three days now. Is there a possibility that I can be pregnant?
Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Yes in case if you miss pills in between there will be bleeding and chances of you getting pregnant depends on the time of cycle you are in when you had intercourse. If you have intercourse during your fertile days and you forget to take pills at the same time there are few chances you may conceive.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Sushma Dubbaka
