Doctor can I fall pregnant while on contraceptive pills?
Answer:
Contraceptive pills, or birth control pills are highly effective at preventing pregnancy. If they are used correctly, they are estimated to be 99% effective.
However, in real life, it is seen that women may miss a dose or forget to take it at the usual time.
Therefore, practically speaking contraceptive pills are estimated to be about 91% effective at preventing pregnancy.
So, to answer your question, if used correctly there is a very small chance that you may become pregnant while using the pill.
