Question
My hubby and I had unprotected sex during the 6th day of my cycle. Should I be concerned about getting pregnant and try to take a pill asap or not worry? Thanks in advance!!
From a very general view point that would be kind of early in your cycle to become pregnant. What kind of birth control do you use? You might like to learn about the natural methods where you don't need "protection" and get the full effect of skin on skin. Contact your local natural methods teacher for more information or look at http://www.irh.org/
