    Late Period, Sex during period
    I've always had delayed and late period. There are times that I have a regular 28day cycle.. but for the last 3 cycles, they are 50-60 days apart.

    I had sex and my man ejaculated in me on the 4th and last day of menstruation. After not having period for almost 60 days. I was previously on pills then stopped. Could I get pregnant having sex on my last day of period while on the first 3 days of birth control pills?

    Yes, if you were not using the pills before, and just starting new, it takes about 30 days for them to take effect.

    Also the pill is only about 99 percent effective and you may get pregnant using the pill regularly.

    So yes you could be pregnant.

    Yes. Any time penis enters vagina, even with protection, pregnancy is possible. Even during your period, especially because you don't have a regular cycle, pregnancy is possible.

    Considering your birth control habits, on the pill, off the pill, on the pill again, pregnancy is actually even more likely.

    You'll have to wait and see, that's the only option. Wait for you next period, or at least 3 weeks after you had sex, then, if you haven't had a period, test using first morning urine. If that test is negative, wait until your next period, if you miss it, test again. If that test is negative get a blood test at your doctors, or ask for an ultrasound.

    Birth control only works if you use it consistently, and even then it's not 100%. You'd be shocked at how many women, just on this site, that got pregnant while on the pill, using a condom, and a third form of birth control, and pulled out! The only way to avoid pregnancy 100% is to not have sex. Any time you have sex, especially when you're not careful with your birth control, you risk pregnancy.

    Good luck.

    Have to add. It takes time for the pill to work once you start taking it. Doctors recommend you use another form of birth control for at least a month when you start the pill. You were on day 3 of the pill, so that increases the risk of pregnancy even more.

    After that night, I took two pills of ethinyl levonorgestrel everyday at the same time for seven days, could it have helped me? Thinking it coould give me the same effect as emergebcy pills/ morning pills would give, since plan b is not available in the philippines

    You can use some regular birth control pills as emergency contraception, but the dose depends on the type of pill. While you may possible get some effectiveness from the sort you used, the dosage would need to have been different for greater effect. Always wise to check with your doctor for correct dosage needed.

    Even with any birth control pregnancy can be possible, so now you will have to wait and see.
