I am on the Amethia lo birth control medicine. I missed a pill last Saturday and took it 12 hours later. I also missed a pill on Tuesday and took it 12 hours later when I remembered. I am in my 3rd month of taking birth control, and I am on the 2nd to last week of a 3 month pack. Is it safe to have intercourse?
Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. You have done the right thing by taking the missed pills as soon as u remember, you are supposed to do like this only. Only if you miss two or more pills continuously then there is risk of pregnancy, but remember don't take 2 or more tabs to compensate the missed pill. You just take the missed pill and continue the rest of the pills as scheduled. But on safer side tell your partner to use condoms when you miss the pills. All the Beauregard Chat Doctor.
