Can Pregnancy Still Happen After Taking Birth Control?

Hi, I just started taking birth control. I am currently taking Lo Loestrin Fe. I have been taking the pill for 9 days now. For the first 7 days I took the pill every day at the same exact time precisely and I read that if you do so you are protected right away. On the 9th day my boyfriend ejaculated inside of me. Am I okay?

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Do not worry.
Lo loestrin Fe is highly effective in preventing the pregnancy.
It has just 0.5 % failure rate.
No chance of the pregnancy as you have taken regularly at the specific time.
Not to worry about unprotected sex was done on 9th day.
You are completely safe and also you did sex on the safe period of the cycle.
Make habit to take pill regularly on specific time every day by putting the reminder in the mobile.
Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water and do regular exercise.
Hope this may help you

Best regards
Dr. Sagar
