Question
ok my girlfriend and i were having sex and i came inside of her while having it. but what she failed to tell me was that this was the first day of her placebo pill and she had not started her period yet. so my question is what are the risks of her getting pregnant and is it OK for her to take a morning after pill while on birth control or during this time of the month while she is supposed to have her period
Hi Matthew,
Thanks for your question. I'm not a medical professional but I did find an article on this at http://www.optionline.org
You can click on the link that says "Morning after pill" which is also called Plan B. This is a very interesting article and after reading this, I wouldn't recommend taking Plan B. It is sometimes taken for no reason.
So let me know what has been happening in the last two days and I will see what else I can help you with. Please email me privately at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com and put ALLEXPERTS in the subject line of your email. Hope to hear from you soon.
