Hello, I ve been on Tri-Sprintec for 3 full weeks today. I started taking the pill on the first day of my period. At day 14 I had unprotected sex and the following day I took a different brand of birth control pill as an emergency contraceptive. Am I at a great first for being pregnant since I m new to the pills? I ve read elsewhere online that it takes at least a month to be completely safe. Thanks
Hello, I have gone through your query and understood the concern. It is true that the initial couple of cycles after hormone contraception need additional protection as they are not completely protected. Yet, as you have taken the emergency pill soon after the unprotected intercourse, you are safe. The high hormone content in the emergency pill creates hormone imbalances. Thus, you can see some with Chat Doctor.  In the future, please do not go for any additional hormone contraception as with regular hormone intake, your cycle is well protected. Hope this helps.
