am I protected?

[ellelovestimmy]

I'm 16, and have been on BCP(levlen Ed) for 3 months now
I was up to the placebo week and received my period, and was meant to start the active pills again on the Saturday, but forgot and didn't start the active ones until Monday. On Tuesday night, my boyfriend and I had sex, the condom broke and he came inside me,
am I still protected, or is there a likely chance I may get pregnant?
please help.

Possibly Maybe not a high chance, but no contraceptive is foolproof - maybe wait a couple of weeks and do a HPT just to be sure? Hope you get the answer you want

No, you wouldn't be protected b/c you need to take the active pill withing 24hrs of when you're supposed to, otherwise you have to wait another 7 days to make sure you're protected again.
I wouldn't say there's a high chance of you being pregnant but there is a chance.

Hi Elle,
There is a chance you could get pregnant ( very low risk, but it's still there). The pill needs 7 days to switch "on" and "off". Since you've had a break of more than 7 days, there is a very slight chance of ovulation occuring. You can still get the morning after pill if you hurry. Most effective less than 72hrs after intercourse. Go see your pharmacist asap and do a preg test in 2 weeks. Goodluck hun.
