pregnancy

My docter had prescribed me to aviane 28 about 3 almost 4 years ago because my periods were so bad like my cramps would be so bad that I would faint and I would be off school for a couple of days. I am 17 years old and I have NEVER had unprotected sex. But just 3 weeks ago I did. I have no symtoms  dont think that I am pregnant. I am just worried that I may be. so my question is: Can I get pregnant if  have been on the pill for that long and have never missed one, BUT I dont take it at the same time everyday(only on holidays and vactions). So can I get pregnant if I have only had unprotected sex once?

you cant remember to take your pills correctly at the correct time. that lessons the effectiveness of the pills.

I have NEVER had unprotected sex before I plan on using a condom next time. but since I did it once without one I have been soo worried that I have been pregnant and I keep telling myself I'm not it was only once, and i WAS TOLD i WAS OK BECAUSE IT WAS LIKE right AFTER I had my period. So is there a good like 99 or 98% chance that I'm not pregnant? This happened about 2 weeks ago. So could I be?

It doesn't matter how long you've been on the pill. It takes one session of unprotected sex (whether it be a missed pill or no condoms) to get pregnant. Chances are you're not, however is it worth putting yourself through the worry and anxiety? Next time stress using condoms.

I was on the pill for years. I did it because it was easier when it came to sex etc; the guy didn't have to worry. I finally smacked myself upside the head and began to think "why should it only be on my shoulders? Why can't the guy shoulder some of the responsibility??". There's one thing that's always stood with me throughout my years and it's something my dad said when it came to sex. He said if you're having sex without a condom you're not just sleeping with that guy. You're sleeping with everyone he's slept with, everyone THEY'VE slept with, and everyone.... See the point?

Don't put yourself through the worry and anxiety or the stress of "what if". Put your foot down and start insisting on condoms each time. Do some research on them. There are fun ways to put them on your guy etc. They will try to give ANY excuse in the book not to use them... so counter that with knowledge. Soon they will have no argument ;)
