Could really do with some advice...

I take my pill back to back, as I have bad periods, at the moment I have just done 3 back to back packets. However this month I missed one pill in the 2nd week, but the time I realised it was 2 late to double up. I then missed a pill in the 3rd week, as I was away for business and forgot to take it with me. The next day I doubled up. In the 3rd week I had sex twice (the first time the day i doubled up, and the 2nd was 3 days later, however i took the morning after pill within 12 hours)

What's the chance of pregancy?

I take Yasmin, and have done for 5 years

If you miss a pill your normally advised to use condoms for 7 days following, so if you managed to use the morning after pill within the time fame you should be ok. I would advise not to take the next pack and have a period. The morning after pill can mess your periods up a bit though and give you painful boobs and nausea. Just to warn you. Have you thought about changing your contraception. If you have bad periods and not interested in having a baby at the moment a mirena coil could work quite well for you or the depo injection? I have endometriosis and had the coil for 5 years I dint have a period for 4 and a half years after the first 6 months. Works differently for everyone though. Hope its all ok for you.
