Help..

[underthe]

So I started the pill 5 days ago I had sex after taking the pill for 3 days, it's the mini pill but I haven't been taking it at the same time everyday as I didn't know I should take it at the same time everyday. I'm so worried in case I get pregnant, I get pregnant very easily! Am I just worry to much? Help.....

@underthe I would go and get the morning after pill from the chemist just to be sure. I'm think most pills only start working after a week but also depends on what time of your cycle you are in

Honestly I don't know my periods are all over the place! Is it to late for the morning after pill, this happen Tuesday 🤦‍♀️

Sorry I mean Wednesday

You can take the Ella one pill up to 5 days after unprotected sex (more effective the sooner you take it) you can have the copper coil fitted also as a method of emergency contraception. Here is a link to the nhs site with information. Not sure if you are from the uk. However the site is still useful :)

@underthe

Thank you yes I'm in the uk

@underthe no problem

If you started the pill whilst on your period, it's effective immediately.

What brand is your pill? Some don't need to be taken at the same time each day.

I wasn't on my period my last period was the 1st of pat but lasted 3 weeks 🤦‍♀️ I'm on cerazette

1st of may **

Cerezette has a 12 hour window, so you don't need to take it the same time each day, just within the same 12 hour window every day, like the combined pill.
