Plan B or not?

Question

I'm on Orsythia for birth control. I started back in April. I hardly ever missed any pills, even though sometimes I forget to take it at the same time everyday. I had sex earlier today and he came inside of me for the first time. I'm just really nervous that I could possibly become pregnant. I'm not sure whether I should go out and get some Plan B or just wait till after Sunday, since it will be the week I take the placebo pills in the pack and have my period. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Answer

For most birth control pills as long as you haven't missed any pills, you should be protected from pregnancy. I would not take plan B. Plan B is typically used by people who have used condoms that broke or had unprotected sex with no other form of birth control. The pill has a very high rate of efficacy and it is very unlikely you are pregnant. I have been taking the pill a long time and never use any condoms or second birth control with my husband and have never become pregnant.

Plan B is pretty harsh and I would avoid it if you are already protected  form pregnancy by birth control:

Answer

I'm kind of in the same situation except I'm on ortho tri cyclen lo. I've been on it for a year. And my bf came in me earlier but I've looked into it and almost everyone says as long as you take your birth control at the same time everyday do not take plan b. That's what birth control is for. Plus it will mess with your cycle and all your doing by taking it is adding a huge dose of hormones you don't need. Really think you're better off not taking it.

Answer

I don't understand. You said you're on birth control, so why are you considering Plan B??

Answer

I was in the same boat with my SO we  went and got one just to be 100% safe well more like 99% but anyways if you are worried then just go get one. Better to be safe than sorry
