thanks doctor...but on 31st night around 2:00 AM we had sex and after todays sex she ate the ipill(Around 10:00 PM) will it also protect the sex done on 31st?

Answered by Dr. Manisha Jain (4 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
yes it will protect that also

Detailed Answer:
Yes dear, good point is it will protect that sexual activity too.
But in general in case you intend to be sexually active then either use protection in the form of condoms or ask your girlfriend to have oral pills daily.
Ipill intake on a regular basis is not good for health.
Take care.
