Sick While On the Pill (microgynon 30) -does It Still Work?! Posted: 11-01-07 08:09am
I am on microgynon 30 and have taken it as
directed (usually early morning) but i was
sick around 2am last night. i still took
today's pill, but i am concerned that
yesterday's would not have been effective
because i was sick (although it was around
19 hours after i took it).
Do i need emergency contraception, or is
it likely that the pills are/were not
affected?
Thanks

You were fine. It takes your body a few
hours to absorb the pill; about 3-5. Any
time after that, you're fine.
