Question:

I've recently started taking the combined pill as a contraceptive but...?

I've only taken it for 6 days and unfortunately now sex has got the better of me and we didnt use a condom. I've been told that i must wait at least 30 days for the pill to be effective, but the instructions that came with the pills said i would be covered straight away. So could i be pregnant or what?


Answers:

You could certainly be pregnany. A barrier method must be used when you're first starting oral contraceptives.

Don't freak out.

Call your doc and schedule a visit and explain what happened. You might want to pee on a stick or go have an ultrasound done.

You've got options. Don't fret, babe.
