Ok. I'm on ortho tri cyclin but around
the 17th day or so I accidently took my
pill about 6 hours late. I still took it
that day then the next day I took it at
the regular time. 3 days later I had sex
with a condom but it broke and I was
worried so I took plan b 48 hours later.
That night we had unprotected sex. Those
were the only 2 instances we had this
month, and now my period is 3 days late.
I dont know if maybe the plan b made it
late? Or because I got a gym membership
and i've been exercising more the last 2
weeks? Or if i'm just stressing way too
much over it? Any feedback would be
greatly appreciated.

It probably wasn't necessary to take the
plan b, since you were only 6 hours 'late'
taking one day's pill.
The plan b is more hormones and it could
be what is causing your period to be
'screwed' up. How late are you?
Continue taking your pills as normal.
Good luck.

3 days....And thanks for you're reply.
So you think it's not a good chance I
could be pregnant?

No. I do not think you are pregnant at
all. I think with the amount of hormones
you have in your body (from bcp and plan
b), it is slightly confused on what to
do.
Your risk of ovulation after missing one
single pill by 6 hours is so low that plan
b was essentially 'overkill' ;) but at
least you are not pregnant, right?

Thanks very much, I knew it might be too
much, but I have a tendancy to be extra
careful when it comes to
sex/pregnancy....And just out of
curiousity, what is bcp?
