    I recently missed 3 pills in a row and had sex with my husband all 3 days unprotected. We r not ready for children it was just a mistake missing the pills. Could I be pregnant? It was my 3rd week of pills and I did have some pink discharge but figured that was from me starting since I didn't take my pills. When should I test myself? Regardless of if it is or isn't I want to make sure I stay healthy for whatever

    Yes, you could very definitely be pregnant.

    Wait until you miss your period by one week, then test.

    Even if the pill is used correctly pregnancy is possible. The fact that you didn't use it correctly increases the odds. So yes, you could be pregnant.

    You'll have to wait until you miss a period, then test using first morning urine. Make sure to follow the directions exactly.

    Good luck.

    First if you do not want kids, you need to be using at least two or more forms of birth control.
    No form of birth control is 100 percent, Birth control pills range form 99.9 to 99.5 percent, and while that is a low chance it happens all he time.

    Next as soon as you miss pills are are late with them, it increases the chance of pregnancy.

    Yes the spotting can be either, from missing the three pills to implantation spotting.

    You will need to wait till time for your next period to see if you have it or not, if you miss it, wait a week and try and HPT>
