How Effective Are Trigestrel Contraceptive Pills?

Hi, I ve been using trigestrel contraceptive pills for a month now. I had an unprotected sex with my partner last night and I m a little bit scared that I might fall pregnant cause I don t know how this pills work. How effective are this pills? Do they stop the sperms from going to the egg or what? Must I just wait and see what will happen or do you suggest that I buy the morning after pills?

hello dear.
understand your concern.
don'tbe panic ,its safe You can take it ,its totally safe not to take another pills ,u cant be pregnant
Oral contraceptive is highly effective in preventing the pregnancy. After regular use, its failure rate is only 0.5-1 %. It prevent the pregnancy by inhibiting the ovulation (in inhibit the release of gonadotropin hormone) and make the cervical mucus tick so sperm can not enter in to the uterus. It should be taken at the specific time (at bed time) everyday without missing the pill.(make habit to take daily by putting the reminder in the mobile). If you will miss one tablet then take missed pill as early as possible or on the next day with that day of tablet. If you will miss the two tablet then you have to use barrier contraception for next 7 days.
So if you had used very regular without the missing any pill then you have no need any morning after pill. Wait for your period. It will definitely come.
Hope this may help you
