Missed birth control pills side effects

I missed my pills all last week, which conveniently was the time of ovulation for me. We had unprotected sex on Wednesday. Since I missed so many pills, it made my cycle start again but it only lasted 2 days. I'm wondering if this means pregnancy is in the making? Or if anyone has ever had this happen to them?

i set my alarm on my cell phone for the same time i have to take my pill, so when it goes off i know i have to take it. That might work for you.

Take them like clockwork

If you missed a week and made love during ovulation then yes that could cause pregnancy. But if you had your period then maybe you avoided it.

The package that the pills came in will have instructions on what to do about missed pills. Yes when you miss so many pills it can cause side effects. To avoid that happening you really want to take the pill every day and also take it at the same time of day. So every day when you wake up or when you have lunch, some regular time like that, like clockwork.
