Can you?

I am taking the pill and usually don't start my period till I am about to start the new pack, but the sugar pills or whatever they are at the end of the pack is when I had intercourse.  Can you get pregnant ?

I had the same questions, but I'm still too scared to risk it.
It should be built up in your system by then.

If you have been taking the pill correctly it is effective. The sugar pills is to allow you to have a period that week. So no, you cannot get pregnant on that pill week.
