Missed three birth control pills.
I've been taking birth control pills for three months, and I've been terrible at remembering. I'll miss one or two and catch up and then do it again the next week. Three days ago I had sex with my boyfriend and he came in me, and I forgot to take the pill three days in a row after. Could I get pregnant?

Yes, there is a high chance as missing the dose two days in a row itself decreases its protective value. It's highly likely that you can get pregnant. If it haven't been 3 days i would suggest you to take the single dose emergency contraceptive pill. But do continue with your regular contaceptives and stop them as normally you would at the end of 28 days.
