For your information, Plan B is NOT a method of birth control. It is used as a back up for unprotected sex. You need to use the birth control pill for a month every day in order to be protected without using anyting else. DO NOT KEEP USING PLAN B everytime you have intercourse during this first month. That is not very smart. I'm sure your doctor told you, that your first month you'd have to use back up like CONDOMS!
Well, if you keep this up for the month you can get pregnant.

You shouldn't have to worry. Orthotricyclen is effective to prevent against pregnancy in 7 days. It should say it on the package insert you got when you bought it at the pharmacy. Many people think that you always have to wait 1 month for the pill to be effective, but that is false, according to nurses and doctors
