Microgestin 1-20 And Plan B

Hi! I am currently on Microgestin and have been on it for the past year. I just went to Mexico and took my birth control around two-three hours off from usual every night because of the time difference and one night about 7 hours off. That same night I had unprotected sex where we used the pull out method, but I am pretty sure he may have came inside of me just a little. I am also on my second week of the pills where I am most fertile and I do not get my period so I get extra nervous! Should I be taking plan b?

Generally, there is 12 hour window, before it is considered a late pill, and 24 hours, before it is considered a missed pill, according to FDA advice. Thus, you should be okay, as long as you didn't miss any tablets. They list its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, PMS-like symptoms, and irregular bleeding.

Has there been any change? Have you experienced a period, yet?

If you are concerned, there is never any harm in having yourself checked for pregnancy.
