I took my daily pill yesterday morning, and slept with my boyfriend early hours this morning. honestly, I hardly take my pill I m so forgetful and that lead me to have a period about 2 weeks ago. However my boyfriend and I have been together a few years and we ve decided to plan a baby. I don t know how to work it out.. I know the contraceptive pill stays in your system for 24 hours, however I understand that ejaculation stays in your system for 72 hours? So if I don t take my pill anymore, is there a chance I could possibly get pregnant?

Yes. I've done a lot of research on the pill and it is only effective if you take it everyday and at the right time. You can't skip days and just plan on having two pills the next day (it doesn't work). The pill is a very good method of not getting pregnant ONLY if you use it correctly... and even so... it is NOT 100% effective. I'm not an expert here but I do take birth control only because I get really bad periods with many symptoms. Even if you take the pill I would recommend you wear protection. I would go see a doctor or even buy a cheap pregnancy test only to see what's going on. After you use the pregnancy test I would go to see a doctor, just to make sure.
