Question
I was on birth control pills and my period ended on saturday. i forgot to take the pills on thursday and friday, and i had unprotected sex with my boyfriend on friday, and i am now off the pills, what is the chance of me getting pregnant?

Answer
It's possible that you could be pregnant but I really can't tell you the chances. It is probably small, though. You can call a pregnancy resource center and see if you can get a free test. They could probably tell you when to come in. Call 1-800-395-HELP or go to http://www.optionline.org or go to http://www.heartbeatinternational.org/worldwide_directory.asp

Also, please email me at CHERYL51@aol.com and tell me how you are doing.
