I have been on the pill for 4 years and did not refill in time to take this month.. I have been off it for about three weeks. We been using condoms, but two night a ago the condom feel off and I am worried. Can i use tri- sprintec in stead of the plan b pill? Or should I not be worried?

Hello dear
I understand your concern
If you had sex during fertile phase of period then you need to worry about pregnancy.
10th to 18th day of cycle considered as fertile phase of cycle.
Tri-sprintec will not help you to prevent pregnancy after sexual intercourse.
If you had sex during fertile phase of period then take plan B pill to prevent pregnancy.
Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water do regular exercise
Hope this may help you
Contact further if follow up needed
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
