Missed pills?

Question

So, this may sound a little complicated...

I've been on BC for over a year now but took last month off. This month I have missed a few doses as shown in picture. The day that is circled was when my guy and I had unprotected sex. I was having a very light period flow to almost nothing so we had sex and he did finish inside of me. I realized afterwards that I had missed two consecutive active pills last week. I am curious how high my risk is of becoming pregnant since I've had at least four days of taking my active pills and then went ahead and had my period. Also, I don't really ever take them at the same time each night because my sleep schedule is out of whack. Anyway, what are your thoughts?

Answer

I used to be the worst with taking my pills lol I would skip like 3 days and take those 3 missed days at once... yeah I was bad! Honestly it depends on where you are in your cycle. There are only 5 keys days your really have to watch for which are usually around cycle day 11-16. I would continue to take the pills and test in two weeks if I were you. I think you should be okay but just to stay safe, test in two weeks and try to take your pills around the same time every night. You can even switch it to taking it after you brush your teeth in the morning if that's easier. I had an app on my phone that notified me when to take my pill.
