My boyfriend and i had unprotected sex 2 days ago, just when my period had ended (one day after my period ened). He says that it i impossible for me to get pregnant, however, i have read cases in wich it happened. I am on Diane birth controll, and i have a 28 day cycle. The day i had sex i took my third pill of the pack. I have PCOS, by the way.
What are me chances of being pregnant? This happened on wednesday 17 of october. Should i take plan B pill?
Thanks fot the help!

Hi Anon,

Is this your first month on birth control? Or just your third pill of a new pack? If this is not your very first pack of pills, then you should be protected by your pill--otherwise, a condom should be worn for the first two weeks. Although most women with a 28 day cycle do not ovulate right after menstruation, every single woman is different and it is a possibility. So, if this was your first pill pack and you had unprotected sex, you can take plan B or you can wait for your next period to arrive and take a pregnancy test if you're late.

Good luck,

Rosa
