Do I need to take plan B?

Question

About two weeks ago I forgot to take my pill. The next day I got back on routine with it and the day after that I took two pills (after reading online to take the pill that I had missed) Yesterday I had sex without using a condom, and the guy did not finish. Do you think I need to take plan B due to the hiccup in my pill routine from two weeks ago?

Answer

Plan b is only effective for 72 hours after a slip up anyways so it wouldnt have effected anything from 2 weeks ago.

Answer

I’m honestly not sure; I would say to ask your doctor or pharmacist. There’s also a text hotline for planned parenthood where you can text them questions like this and an expert will answer! I’ve used it before and they were helpful.
Also, please know that Plan B loses efficacy if you’re over 175 lbs, but if that’s the case, you can get the copper IUD inserted as emergency contraception within 5 days! And then you’ll have it in place for years and not need to worry about the pill anymore, if you decide to go that route.
Good luck! And if you do find out an “official” answer, will you reply to me? I’m just curious!

Answer

No you did exactly what you're supposed to and you shouldnt take plan B if you are on the pill

Answer

I just get paranoid that I’m going to get pregnant when I mess up my birth control pill routine at all so your guys feedback helps me not worry and overthink :) thanks
