Is Pregnancy Possible After Missing Birth Control Pill Dosage?
I have recently started taking birth control pills sprintec is the brand. I began taking the pills on the 1st day of my period which was June 15th and I have not been on birth control since I was 15 and I am now 22. Since the beginning I have been having to double up on my pills taking 2 in a day because I keep forgetting them. In the third week I continued to forget them and I have missed 6 pills. Last night I had unprotected sex and he ejaculated in me. Not sure if there is a chance I could be pregnant and what to do if I am. Wouldn t continuing the birth control harm the fetus

in routine cycle once the menstrual period was over e.g. on 5th day of cycle, u can start the pills. u should take pills everyday, if u forget for one day u should take pill as soon u remember and the routine schedule will continue but if u forget for more than 2 days then u should continue to take pills without any break during menstruation period. when u continue pills there may chance of irregular mensis/missed period. u can also go for UPT for further confirmation
