1) I have been taking Apri birth control (desogestrel and ethinyl estradiol .15mg/.03mg) for about 7 months now and ever since I started it I accidentally started the wrong pill.. like the 1st row I started on the 4th pill being Wednesday ( I recently foundout that you are supposed to start on Sunday the 1st pill and just change the label above. I do however get my period on the 4th white pill which would be 21 days from the other pills (which is normal time). I was wondering, since I started wrong, and still take it wrong, does that make my chances higher of becoming pregnant? And if so, how much?
THANK YOU! :)


2) And I've recently changed to the same dosage just generic Reclipsen BC and I have been having pregnancy side effect, so I was wondering if maybe the mis-use of the days of my pills made my chances higher. Or even changing to a generic brand would also?
