A member asked:
On birth control, took first pill of new pack 2 hours late, had unprotected sex a week after period started, a week before ovulation, likelihood of pregnancy? i dont want to be pregnant im just scared.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Birth control pills: One does not ovulate on birth control pills. They work by preventing ovulation. Being two hours late on a pill does not make any difference as far as the effectiveness of the pill.
