I am in a long distance relationship and occasionally skip my placebo pills when I see my bf. Most recently, I did this for 3 months straight. Now I'm back on the placebos and am 4 days late. I am religious about taking my pills on time. Pregnant?

Probably not. Doctors agree that you can ocassionally skip your period by skipping your reminder pills, for up to 3 months at a time. If you're worried, though, why not get a test? It's always possible that you're one of the unlucky 1 in 100 women who become pregnant on the pill. I think it's more likely that your cycle is just out of whack from skipping your period for three months.

Placebo pills? A placebo is basically a sugar pill aka not really medication. If you are taking placebo's, you could very well be pregnant. If you meant birth control pills and you are worried you should get a home pregnancy test or go to a clinic or your gyno. to be tested :)

I was wondering the same thing. I guess the question wans't really answered. Is it risky to skip your sugar pills and just go onto the next pack??
