    what the pill does is put just enough hormones in your body to trick it into thinking it already pregnant. so if you do get pregnant by chance which yes does happen it doesn’t harm the baby. just extra hormones running around in your system

    Yes, it can. If you have even the slightest thought that you may be pregnant, then you should immediately cease taking oral contraceptives and consult your doctor URGENTLY. It is not unheard of to fall pregnant whilst taking the pill, but continuing to take it whilst pregnant can cause you to miscarry.

    It is a total myth that it can cause harm to the pregnancy. The contraceptive pill cannot harm the pregnancy in any way.
