Sprintec Missed Dose In 3rd Week

Updated

I have been on Sprintec for over 10yrs now. This week I missed my pill on Thursday night and Saturday night, which was my "week 3" row. I had intercourse with my partner Tuesday night, but haven't had any since because I rather be safe then sorry. What I did was on Thursday morning when I realized I had not taken my pill the night before, I took it and then continued my schedule as always. I have been spotting because I was about to start my cycle which actually came tonight (Sunday). Tonight when I realized I had not taken my last week 3 pill the night before, I took it immediately along with my Sunday (white, sugar pill). My question is, are there any chances of me being pregnant due to this?

Any time you miss a pill for more than 24 hours, there is a risk of pregnancy, but if you had your period, it isn't very likely, according to FDA reports.

However, there is never any harm in having yourself checked for pregnancy to be sure.

How are you doing, now? Has there been any change?

@verwon,

Hello there, well my period ended as normal and I started my new pack on Sunday night. Last night like an ***** I fell asleep and forgot to take my pill. So I took it at 7am this morning as soon as I woke up. I've been on the pill since I was probably 22yrs old and in all of these years I maybe had forgotten to take it once or twice. I don't know what's going on with my memory, these past couple months it's been horrible!!!

Around 10/2/2017 I missed a dose of sprintec, and around 12:30am on 10/8/17 I had unprotected intercourse. Is there any chance I could be pregnant? After the 2nd I have continued my pill as normal.
