I am on birth control. Since the final set of pills in the package do nothing for me I don’t take them, it’s 7 days. I had sex for 4 days after my menstruating, but I have forgotten to buy the pill and begin my regiment during those 4 days. Is there a chance I could be pregnant because of this 4 day gap? I began to take the birth control again on 5th day. I’m scared because my period is late.

Yes, pregnancy is possible as you may have ovulated when you failed to start your next pack on time. If you are a week or more late for your period, take a pregnancy test. If it is negative, repeat the test every two weeks until you have a normal period or a positive test result. Do not stop taking your pills unless you test positive for pregnancy.
