I have been taking birth control pills for about 3 years. I forgot to take 3 tablets of yasminelle in the first week. I always take pills in the evening, and in the morning on this day there was intercourse, but ejaculation was outside. On the 4th day in the evening I took 2 tablets at a time. Can I get pregnant?

As I understand it, intercourse was intermittent - this form of contraception reduces the risk of fertilization, but it is not considered an effective way to prevent pregnancy. Therefore, since hormonal contraception was used incorrectly, there is a risk of pregnancy in the described situation. Failure to start the blister on time and skipping as many as three tablets in the first week of use may cause that there will be no effective blockade of ovulation in this cycle. Unfortunately, it is impossible to answer whether in your individual situation such a risk is large or small. In any case, when more than one tablet is missed, the drug documentation recommends contacting a doctor.
