Missed Tri-Sprintec 28 pills

I wanted to know if I can be at risk for becoming pregnant? I missed two days of the start of active pills and took 3 on the day I remembered instead of 2 each day like I have read. In another words I took 3 pills on a Tuesday when I normally start my pills on a Sunday.



Missed Pills



I have done that before and on more than one month but nothing has never happened. If you are like me, I am VERY vigilant about taking my birth control EVERY night at the same time (or at least thirty minutes of).  If you have been taking them for a while and this is at the start of your monthly cycle of pills missing shouldn't be a problem. It's in the middle of the cycle that you have to watch out AND you miss more than two days!

RE: missing pills



Yes you can still get pregnant if you miss even 1 day of the pill wether you double up or not. You should definetly use another form of contraception for at  least a week folowing the last day you missed taking a pill. Im talking from expirence here 1 missed pill and a set of twins later..
