Degestoral mini pill

Hello.

I’m on the degestoral mini pill. I missed a pill by 24 hours (12 hour window) usually taken at 9pm a night. Had sex the night before I forgot my pill. 8 days after I’m now experiencing pink spotting, cramps on my left side, really tired and sick?

I thought it would be impossible to get pregnant but I’m unsure now I’ve never felt like this before? Surely I wouldn’t release an egg that quick?

please help! No idea when to even test! What are your experiences with the mini pill?

Test 2 weeks after sex.

I used to regularly miss pills but never got pregnant

Why would you think it impossible to get pregnant? Missing 1 mini pill can put you at risk of pregnancy. Did you not consider taking the morning after pill?

Okay thank you. I agree I have friends who have missed a few at a time and they say it’s been fine

Do they take the mini pill or combined pill though? Combined pill has more leeway regarding missed pills
