Question

So I am taking sprintec 28 birth control pills. I accidentally forgot 2 pills in the second week of the active pills and we have sex. (No other protection) know if you forget 2 pills then you take the first when you remember and the the next time you are supposed to take it you take the one for that day and the other day you forgot. well as soon as I remembered I took the first pull I forgot and waited for the next day (when I was supposed to take it). Well long story short I took one more pill and the other ended up in the garbage. So how is that going to affect me? Will I get pregnant? I need help please.

You only missed one pill total, so you should be fine. The hormones were still in your system when you missed the pill, so you were protected then, but since your hormones are at a slightly different level now, I would use some extra protection for the next week of active pills, since it takes a week for the pills to work. And if you feel anything is up, maybe take a test, but you should be all clear. This is just really conservative advice, sounds like you're fine!

It takes time for the hormones to leave your body. Missing one or two pills shouldn't cause you to get pregnant.. I used to accidentally miss pills all the time when I was on birthcontrol. Especially since it sounds like you take them pretty consistently, you should be fine.
