I have been using Lo Loestrin for a month and a week now. yesterday my boyfriend finished inside me. I'm not sure if I should get a plan b pill or not ? (they work up to 3 days after) I'm really worried because I do not want to be pregnant ! Will I be okay going without the plan b pill ? Does Lo Loestrin help fight the sperm ?? What should I do ?

i have been on lo loestrin for 3 weeks now at the same time and had unprotected intercourse today. Could i be pregnant? this is my first time taking birth control.
Hello Taylorbri! How are you?
This is an oral contraceptive that helps prevent pregnancy. It prevents you from ovulating, so no egg is dropped to be fertilized by his sperm and it also changes the texture of your cervical mucous, to make it harder for the sperm to move through your reproductive system.
They reach their full level of efficacy in the body after being on them for a full week, without missing any tablets, or if you start taking them the first or second day of your period, they will be immediately effective.
Thus, if you didn't miss any pills, the you should have nothing to worry about, but check with your doctor to be certain.
Is there anything else I can help with?
