Hi, i been on birth control for a month, and i had unprotected sex with my bf, should i take the moring after pill? could the mix of both pills do harm? or i shouldnt worry? i been taking the BC everyday, but not always at the same time, does this affect in any way?
Hi, The pill offers enough protection if you are regular with it, though you may miss the exact time by a few inches. Yet, added protection is needed in the initial month of pill intake as safety cannot be guaranteed. As such, you may need the emergency contraception if you happen to be during the fertile period when the intercourse happened. If you need the pill, please take it within the stipulated time, and a few hours away from the regular pill intake. Your hormonal balance is going to be disrupted in this cycle, and you may need assistance if you do not see your next period even after ten days after it is due. Hope this helps.
