Is An ECP Required After Intercourse?

Hi,i was prescribed the antibiotics calvepen 666mg, flucillin 250mg caps fluclaxacillin for a recovery from an abyss. I was on the antibiotics above for 7 days and finished taking them last tuesday june 7th. I usually use the microlite contraceptive pill as my primary method of contraception but during the course of antibiotics I used a condom with my partner while still continuing to take my contraceptive pill. However 6 days after finishing the course of antibiotics I didn't use a condom and relied soley on the pill. Am I likely to need a morning after pill? How soon would it be safe for me to rely on the pill as my sole contraceptive again?

Hi,

You were on Microlite and you were also using condom. There is no need of a morning after pill. Continue your pill till your next period. Then restart again under supervision.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Archana Rajesh Babu, OB & GYN Specialist
