Taken Nordette After Unprotected Sex. Safe To Take Althea As Regular Birth Control?

Goodmorning doctor. I just finishedtsking my last dosage of nordette last 12mn as a morning after pill after an unprotected sex. I just want to ask if is it safe to take althea as a regular birth control right on the 1 st day of my menstruation or should i wait a little longer to take it. How long should i wait? I tried taking nordette as a regular pill 2 yrs ago for like 6months.
Hoping you could help me out. Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
You should consult a gynaecologist for proper examination and then decide whether you want to continue on Nordette or you want to start on Althea as birth control.
Good luck.
Take care.
