I am suppose to take my pill at 8pm and for got and had sex with out a condom that night and then remembered about 7am i forgot to take my pill then at 7 am i took it and at 8pm will i get pregnant?

Answer
Hi Lisa,

Thanks for your question. There would be a very slight chance of this causing pregnancy but any time you have sex, even "Protected", there is always a percentage of time that a woman would get pregnant. I always advise abstinence if possible because that is the only guarantee of preventing STD's or sexually transmitted diseases and pregnancy. If you want to talk to me privately, just email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com
Hope to talk to you soon.
