How Effective Is Lady-Comp Birth Control Fertility Monitor In Preventing Pregnancy?

Posted on Sat, 21 May 2016
Question: Hi, Had an Iud and my body couldnt tolerate it so i decided to use the ladycomp. I got my period on the 9th of march or 8th at night and i had unprotected sex from the 9th to 14th at 1 am in the morning so just the start of the 14th. i thought that these were my safe days from using the standard method but now im scared and think that i took an unnecessary risk. the lady comp only has my current period information and said that the 15th is red so fertile and the 14th is yellow which means the machine is still learning your cycle. should i take a plan b, i took one in january and i dont want to take another one.

Brief Answer:
Chances are almost zero

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear and thanks for your query.
I understand your concern but try to have another safe method because Using lady comp is not 100 safe.

In fact days you have had unprotected intercourse are very safe, chances to have a pregnancy are almost zero.

Hence in my opinion there is nothing to worry about and don't use emergency pill.

Be calm and wait for the next period,because being stressed can cause delay periods.

All the best
