I think if you took your pill this morning, you should be alright, because you only missed the pill by mere hours.. not days.
And, just so you know for future reference, MOST women ovulate 14 days before your next period.. your most fertile time is three days before, and 1 day after that 14th day.
For example; if you started your period on the 1st, and your cycle is 28 days, you would be most fertile from the 11th to the 15th. [Note, this is MOST women]
just hang in there--the fact that you have the pill all ready in your system and took it when you remembered should suffice. not to mention the fact that the morning after pill is just high doses of birth control pills like Lo-estrin. i think you'll be just fine.
You shouldn't need the morning after pill (because you are in your third week of taking them) but you MUST follow the instructions in your pill packet and start the next packet without having a pill free break (even if that does make you worry you might be pregnant), or you may ovulate.
You should be just fine, since you're 4 days away from your period. That of course, depends on your cycle. If ovulation time has passed by many days you should be safe. The problem with missing a pill is that your body may ovulate, but if you missed it towards the end of your cycle it should be just fine. I've missed a pill or two before, and never got pregnant...everyone's different though. I have heard of women that got pregnant on the pill.
I say you're safe
PERSONALLY, because I really don't want a baby right now I'd get the morning after pill. You have to take within 72 hours so if you wait to get your period and you don't it'll be too late. You can just go to Planned Parenthood and get the pill for like $35.
Be careful! :)
I would take the morning after pill just to be safe, I missed my period this week and am freaking out! You do NOT want that to be you in a couple weeks. So like i am sure you already know, better late than sorry. good luck! Always feel free to email or IM me. I can always use someone to talk to when i am up worrying all night. good luck!!
I think you should ask your pharmacist whether or not you need the morning after pill. That's just what I would do.
if you want to be really safe go get the morning after pill because you can only use it 3 days after having sex and your due in 4 days.
but its really slim if you get pregnant just by missing one pill
the morning after pill only works within 3 days of unprotected sex so you really don't have much time. when you're on birth control you don't really have a fertile period because it stops ovualtion from occuring so you should be ok.
