Could Intake Of Morning After Pill Affect The Working Of Regular Birth Control Pills?
Hello, I have been using the contraceptive pill for almost 3 years and have always taken it without missing a pill. 2 weeks ago I had unprotected sex with no condom with my partner and on this day i took my pill late. The next day I took the morning after pill as a back up. Will this affect the normal contraceptive pill and is there a chance I could be pregnant??

Hi,
Welcome to the HCM.
The chances of getting pregnancy are decreased .And having after pill once would not cause any harm.But having it recurrently can cause some side effects ,like headache,heavy bleeding ,abdominal pain etc.
