So me and my boyfriend were you know and we weren’t thinking and he put it in raw. It was about 7 seconds before we realized he didn’t have a condom on and he pulled out immediately. I’m pretty sure he didn’t even thrust at all we were just getting comfortable. I’m on the pill but of course I missed taking it by 12 hours or something. This happened on Friday 3/8 but then I got my period the next day and I’m pretty sure today, Wednesday 3/13, is my last day. I’m just scared since I missed my pill by 12 hours and I didn’t take a plan b stupidly. The more I’m thinking about it though the more scared I am, I know pre cum can get you pregnant but I’m just so so scared.

Hi Runmelon51,

Just to make sure I'm giving you the right answer, are you on the combination pill? Or are you on the mini-pill?

Hi! I’m sorry I’m not too sure what that means, I just know I’m on a BC pill.

Are you able to tell me the brand?

Tri-lo-mariza

Got it. So, that's a combination pill, which means that there's a 12 hour grace period before it's even considered late, and a 24 hour grace period before it's considered missed. Taking one pill late isn't going to decrease the effectiveness of the method, so you can assume you still had protection from your pill during this (you also used the withdrawal method, which adds another layer of pregnancy protection into the mix).

That being said, it sounds like you two might want to talk about how this happened and figure out what you need to do to prevent the same, stressful situation from happening again in the future. Too, just to check, are you two up to date on your STI testing?
