Emaz help agony auntit does increase your chances but they're still very low if you carry on taking your pill right. Take a pregnancy test at the end of the month because even if you do get pregnant you will most likely still have your period in the 7 day break because of the pill

For heaven's sake, read the pamphlet that comes with your birth control--it tells you in there. If you're not ready to become a parent then either A. Don't have sex B. Find a birth control method that you won't forget to take that way you don't increase your chances of pregnancy or C. If you haven't been taking your pills as directed use a backup method, condoms are a great start.

Yes, you could get pregnant. Take it from me, I am 9 months pregnant and due any day. It was all because I didn't take the pill at the correct time for a few consecutive days. I had been on the same pills for 8 years before that, so it certainly wasn't the pills themselves. I would suggest Plan B if possible and still within the correct timeframe. If not, call your local pregnancy counseling center or clinic and get tested.
