A member asked:
If your birth control pill fails, can you accidentally ovulate 2 days after your withdrawal bleed ends?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Highly unlikely: The pill when taken properly does not "fail" and you do not ovulate when you are on the pill. The hormones prevent ovulation. It is highly unlikely you would ovulate two days after tour withdrawal bleeding.
