I took the morning after pill on Saturday after unprotected sex on Friday night.!


Question: I took the morning after pill on Saturday after unprotected sex on Friday night!.!?
Stupid I know but was with my long term partner and we were very drunk!. We usually use condoms only!. After taking the morning after pill on the Saturday I started taking the combined contraceptive pill on Monday!. Was this the right thing to do and if I continue to take it will I be protected after 7 days!? I know I should have waited for my period but too late now!. Also I was about 2 weeks into my cycle when had sex!.Please help!. I am worried that as the period I will have at the end of my pill packet is not a real one that I won't know if I am pregnant!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
You did the right thing by taking the morning after pill, and by getting yourself an oral contraceptive!. You should wait until your next period before you rely solely on the pill though!. While generally it is seven days, you may have already ovulated, and its always better to be safer!.

The period you get at the end of your pill pack is not "fake!." It simply regulated by the hormones on the pill and not your natural hormones!. Most women do not continue to get their period once they are pregnant, even on the pill!. You have done everything properly, just wait until after your next period before you start relying only on the pill!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I would advise you to take extra care for the next 8 weeks!. My partner and I had sex without a condom, she took morning after pill 36 hours later!. All well that month, but the next month she conceived just 4 days after end of period!. The morning after pill can throw your cycle, make you extra fertile and you are more at risk of ectopic pregnancy if you do conceive within following few weeks!. We have a fab little girl now, I wouldn't be without her, but she wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Levonelle!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You were right to take the morning after pill - that should cover you and you will be fine!.
You were also right to start re taking your pill!. Use extra precautions for 7 days and continue through to your next pill packet without a break!.

When you are on the pill, your period is never real anyway!.

If you have worries, talk to your doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You should have waited until you had a period and started then!. The likelihood is that you are covered, but basically it is too late to change anything now!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

its a big possibility!. =s!. but if he loves you he will understand and support you IF you are!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You shouldnt have sex before marriage!. - you slag!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You were foolish to have unprotected sex with anyone unless planning to have a child!. However it was with your long term partner, and perhaps I shouldn't be judging you!. The best advice I can offer is that you have at least tried to do the right thing by taking the morning after pill and then going on the pill!. Ideally you should continue to use condoms as well until you get your next period!. However, if you are late, or you are in any way concerned, then you should go back to your GP or local sexual health clinic who will be able to provide you with accurate, informed and confidential advice!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
