Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Taking Emergency Contraception?
Question: Hello, I have a question to a gynaecologist: I am using oral contraception pills (yasmin) but was on a business trip until last Tue and confused things a bit: I took a third-week pill on Thu (30 Oct) about 13 hours late (evening rather than morning) and the day after in the evening again. Then I took two more of a spare blister to postpone my period and entered the week off last Mon (3 Nov). I restarted to take pills on Sun (9 Nov) and have taken three by today, each at regular morning hours. I had otherwise unprotected sexual intercourse with my partner today in the belief that I was protected. But is this actually the case? Or should I take emergency contraception pills rather? And if yes, how should I proceed with my normal XXXXXXX pills? Many thanks in advance for guidance
Brief Answer:
no chance of pregnancy
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to health care magic.
since you have started another pack of XXXXXXX tablets on November 9, the tablet would have started its protection.
Since you had sex now the protection would be already in place and there is no chance of pregnancy.
You don't need any other emergency conteaception along with this. It is more than enough with XXXXXXX
You don't have pregnancy chances. Don't worry about it a your XXXXXXX pills are protecting you from pregnancy
no chance of pregnancy
