Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi! I took 4 marvelon 28 yesterday to counteract protected sex while fertile. Then another 12 hours again. This served as an emergency contraceptive. Will this be enough? I also bought lady trust pills. If I take this today with 8 pills in a 12 hour interval, will it affect me in any dangerous way? Thank you!
Marvelon 28 are taken daily single tablets only. They are not used as emergency contraception. Lady trust pills are same as Marvelon 28 used which can be taken daily. If you are taking these pills daily then chances of getting pregnancy is almost nil. Still if you have to be on safe side then you can use I-pills which contains only Progesterone and taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex. So don't take any of the tablets further and wait for next menstrual cycle bleeding. If no bleeding is there then do urine pregnancy test.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
