Missed B/c Pills Posted: 11-16-06 12:48pm
Okay, i've been on the pill off and on for
the last 5 years and I restarted taking
the pill again 9 months ago. I just
finished having my period- it ended 3 days
ago on monday. I was supposed to start
the new pack of pills monday, but I
totally forgot to go to the pharmacy and
pick them up and my fiance and I had sex
last night. What should I do? Should I
pop the morning after pill or should I be
okay? I really don't want to end up
pregnant just yet- especially considering
our wedding is only 6 months away.

Yes, you would need to use the morning
after pill, and you can start your regular
birth control asap as well.
Just make sure you use your regular bc
pills for 7 full days before you have
sex.
You may notce odd bleeding or spotting
from the map, but that is normal.
