When your on the pill and you have a weeks break are you still protected against pregnancy

Question

Answer

No, you're not and if you're avoiding pregnancy, you should use another method of birth control until you begin your next cycle of pills. For the pill to be effective, you must take it exactly as directed by your doctor.

Answer

Hit send too soon sorry.
​But hen your on that week break it's to have your period and I don't have sex when I have my period cuz it's just gross. But when your off you should be aware that your off and not have sex. Have enough self control to not have sex or don't go off your pills at all.

Answer

No. During that week off your not protected.

Answer

I've heard that missing one pill can leave you unprotected for about a week, so missing several days definitely isn't good. I would suggest calling your doctor's office, and asking what to do next. They'll probably suggest restarting, or just throwing out your missed pills and contuining as if you never missed any. You'll probably have to abstain from sex for about a month, or use another form of protection during that time. But, definietly call your doctor's office, since every pill is a bit different.

​Maybe consider using a different form of birth control? There are several that you don't have to remember to use every single day, so one of those might be a better option for you. You can always talk to your doctor about it
