20, 59, 165my girlfriend has been on birth control for over a year now, she takes it at 10pm every night, or within 1 hour of that time frame. We had unprotected sex on the 13th day of her current package of pills. Do we need to consider plan B at all?
Hello, Since she is very regular with her oral contraception, there is absolutely no need for further protection. Hence, there is no need for taking an emergency pill. If she is taking the progesterone-only pill and not a combined pill, ovulation is not impeded sometimes and hence, further protection may be needed through an emergency pill or IUD. This is because you had the intercourse around mid-cycle. Please wait for her next menstrual period to plan further management, if any. Hope this helps.
