Does Missing Birth Control Pill While Being Sexually Active Cause Pregnancy?
I missed a birth control pill mid cycle, I use an app on my phone and did not realize until after the fact I was in the high fertility area. I was sexually active during this time period. I took the pill I missed the next morning followed by my normal pill that night. I spotted for 5 days after I missed that pill, but have not gotten my period. Should I be waiting for a normal period? I am currently taking LoEstrin 1.5/30

Hi
Welcome
Missing pills can result in pregnancy if you have not used any other method of contraception.
Perform UPT after week of missed period and with morning sample of urine
Hope this helps
Take care
