yes i have gotten pregnant on the pill. my boyfriend didn't believe it was possible but the doctor told him it was highly likely because the pill changes your body hormones and functions so anything can throw that off, stress, medications , multivitamins your diet anything ............
in my situation the pregnancy was ectopic and i had to have emergency surgery
Birth control is not 100% reliable, although it's very close. A late or missed period can be attributed to a number of factors. For example, a lot of stress could effect the consistency of your cycle. It's best to play it safe and take a test, but keep in mind that taking a test too early can also effect the accuracy of the test. If you do decide to test this early, make sure you follow up with a second test in a couple weeks if you do not get your period.
It is possible, but extremely extremely unlikely especially if you've taken all your pills and all at the right time.
I would say you should probably start your new pack today. Otherwise, if you're not pregnant, and there's still sperm inside you, delaying the pack might make you become pregnant!
However a test should show up so you can try taking one, or see a doctor for a blood test. I do think you should tell your doctor and/or pharmacist that you didn't get a withdrawal bleed this month and see what they recommend. I know it can happen sometimes, not sure why. And also I have read in some pill information brochures that missing one bleed isn't an issue but after two they check for pregnancy. I would say talk to a professional and take a test. But I think you should start the new pack.
It is too son to tell but the pill is not 100% safe if you have been on any other medication or had a stomach bug it can effect it. I got pregnant on the pill and I was religious about taking it.
if you become ill and have to take antibiotics this can affect the pill. Doctors tell you to take extra care and use condoms
absolutely you can get pregnant. I have 2 very close friends that this happened too. I would say in your case, you have nothing to worry about, there are various things that can delay you period that are not related to being pregnant.
Your body is supposed to be regulating your hormones, this is how you were designed. Often the pill is used to force periods to be regular, as well as protect from pregnancy. I
