A member asked:

Had (+) lh surge on 12th day of cycle (tested with clear blue ovulation test) while taking sprintec. how is this possible? will i get pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not likely: Ovulation is still possible with hormonal contraception. Pregnancy is prevented by other action of the birth control pill such as making cervical mucous difficult for sperm to cross, slowing down transport of the egg, and making the lining of the uterus unsuitable for pregnancy. This is provided the pills have been taken correctly.
