Consider options: If you are having trouble remembering to take your birth control pills daily then consider a nondairy option. These methods are easier, safer and have higher success rates at preventing pregnancy. The most popular are Mirena, (levonorgestrel) Sklya, Nexplanon and Paragard. A pregnancy test 2-3 weeks after intercourse should be done since you missed pills.
