if you have sex the day before you start your period, if you're on birth control?

how likely are you to get pregnant? i know that it is more likely, but is it bad enough that you should go get a plan B pill?

i usually start on the 3rd or 4th day of taking the placebo pill. this time it was the 4th. we had sex on the 3rd day of me being on the placebo.

no lectures please. i know it was stupid. i don't need anyone to tell me that, i just need to know if it increases the chances significantly being on the placebo. thanks:)

    Usually when you're on the pill it stops ovulation from happening. So in general it's not better or worse any time of the month to have sex. When you're on the placebo pills, you should also be perfectly safe to have sex. Going off the pill enduces your body to have a fake miscarraige. The pill hormonally tricks the body into thinking it's pregnant, so when you take the sugar pills your body is dumping your egg out, or miscarrying. It should be perfectly safe if you take it within 1-3 hours at the same time every day and never miss a pill. You should be perfectly fine =)

    Taking the placebo doesn't mean you can't have sex. As long as you're taking your pills regularly, you won't get pregnant. The hormon pills are what fools your body and the placebo allows you to have your period. You're fine:) if you haven't gotten pregnant on the hormons then you won't on the week of your placebo either
