im starting to take my birth control pills on august 3 and me and bf just had sex and we got too excited so he came inside of me, Can i take the birth control pill now? or i have to take the morning pill?
Hi J3SS,
You're to start Saturday? Are you on your period now?
Taking the birth control now will not help. It usually takes about 7 days (depends on the medication) before they become effective. Plan B is an option but may not be necessary.
When did/does your period start?
hey sorry for the late reply,
I start my period on august 3 and no im not.
I don't know when to take my birth control pills cause its been so long cause I stop taking them cause I wasn't having sex and now that I am I told my mom to buy them and she said I have to wait until I get my period to take them. is that right?
When to start taking b/c pills depends upon the medicine.
But, if you're period is due on 8/3 and just had sex, in the last few days, it is unlikely you'd get pregnant anyways.
Day 1 of your cycle is when your period starts. You normally will ovulate sometime between days 11 and 16 of your cycle. The egg is only viable about 48 hours. You had sex within a week of your period so the timing is poor. Your fertility is decreasing rapidly.
In my opinion you do NOT need a morning after pill.
