A member asked:
If you miss birth control pills during your withdrawl bleeding can you get pregnant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Generally a birth control pack contains 21 days of hormones and 7 days of non-hormone pills. The 7 non-hormone pills are just there to keep you in the habit of taking a pill every day.
