A member asked:

Are you likely to get pregnant the week after taking sugar pills?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unclear question: If you have unprotected sex while on sugar pills, you could get pregnant. If you are on regular oral contraceptives and are refering to the time when you are not taking the active drug, but are otherwise taking the pills regularly, then you are not likely to get pregnant.
