Answer

If those are the pills you take the last week, it isn't very likely. There is always a chance of becoming pregnant, but while on your period or the last week of the pill pack, it is very unlikely.

Answer

So long as you take your pills at the same time every day (no it doenst mean exactly the same time...this can vary by an hour or so on the combined pill--with the mini pill you must take it at the same time daily) and you haven't missed any pills, or had vomiting right after taking a pill, the chances of becoming pregnant at ANY point in the cycle is about 0.3%. In other words, of 1000 women taking the pill daily and on time, not missing any, 3 will get pregnant.
