I would take it every day so as to not have a period then i would 4get and take it every other day. 3 weeks ago i stopped taking the pill altogther and had unprotected sex a few days ago with my partner. What is the likely hood of me being pregnant, and whens the earliest i could do a test. thank you

hi,
I understand your concern.
withdrawal of contraceptive pill would cause withdrawal bleeding & the regular menstrual cycle would set in. In case you had such withdrawal bleeding these days you have possibility of conception.
You can test for pregnancy in -
- two weeks/ around expected date of periods of sex by blood HCG test
- three weeks / after 8 days delay of the periods of the sex by urine pregnancy test.
Thanks.
