    Likelihood of pregnancy after stopping my pill mid cycle?

    Just wondering if anyone has any ideas about this?
    I was 8-10 days into my cycle on sunday & have decided to stop because of pains in my leg & the fear of dvt, plus I don't want to be on it anymore.

    I had unprotected sex with my partner last thursday and stopped taking the pill on sunday (3 days of pills later)
    My question is: as it was BEFORE stopping the pill what are my chances of becoming pregnant? I've heard sperm can live in the cervix for up to 7 days :( I asked the doctor and he said it would be ok but im not that convinced now.

    Can somebody help? As I said I did carry on taking them after the unprotected sex but only for 3 days & then stopped. From now on we will use condoms obviously.

    I really don't want to be pregnant, another thing to worry about!

    I would say no chance but I am not a doctor and don't know all the ins and outs of such things lol
