Suggest Oral Contraception Dosage To Avoid Pregnancy
Question: I had accidentally missed 2 pills in week 3 of my birth control pack. I took 2 the next day I noticed and then took the 3rd one at my normal time and continued taking them for 2 days until Sunday when I started the inactive pills. On tues morning I had unprotected sex and started what seemed to be my period after with bleeding for 2 days. I took plan b on Thursday morning that week anyways. After plan b I continued to take the inactive pills (Thursday- Saturday) and started the active ones on Sunday . Do I need another form of birth control for this week?
