would a pill work if you had it just after you were having sex?

Question

would a pill work if you had it just after you were having sex? im really worried cos we (me and my bf) forgot about the pill and about 10 minutes after we started "doing it" we realised i hadnt taken it so i quickly had one but we carried on doing it. i know it takes a bit of time for the pill to work... so now im just SO worried please help. and dont be mean either. i can handle that right now. im gonna take a pregnancy test and i have already but we did it pretty recently so i dont think it would of worked by now.

Answer 2

If you've taken every other pill of your monthly cycle at approximately the same time every day then missing just one and taking it later will not result in pregnancy. If you had missed several days or a couple and continued to have sex then you could have gotten pregnant. I missed two in a row, finished the rest and ended up pregnant, but it was more or less intentional. Missing one is common and since you took it anyway you should be fine. Don't stress over it or your period will be late because of that. A pregnancy would not be accurate right now. It will only be accurate after the 1st day of your missed period unless you take the early detection ones that will tell up to 5 days before missing. Stop worrying and relax.

Answer 3

i am your not nice answer plain and simple

if your this uneducated about the pill why are you having sex. like the first answer said if you take it every day like your supposed to you have nothing to worry about

obviously since you asked this your one of those stupid idiots who think you take a pill before sex. for god sake stop having sex go to the doctor and get educated as well as take a damn sex ed class.

not taking the pill daily makes it ineffective as in it doesnt work period. which also means your period is badlt messed up. either take the pill right or dont have sex . only taking it when you have sex is royally screwing up your ovaries. when your much older and want to get pregnant you wont be able too.

read the links and get educated

there is no excuse for a woman not knowing and protecting her body. i hope your using condoms also so you dont get an std. men lie. sex is not much different without a condom make him wrap it up. i know i was brash ans harsh but within reason. your being careless and dumb

bring on the thumbs down too and nasty emails

Answer 4

Best bet will be to take the Morning After Pill, which you can get from the pharmacy. You don't need a doctor's prescription for it. They don't cost much at all but you have to take it within 72 hours after sex, so in terms of time frame, you're still ok. Get them first thing tomorrow though. If you need further info, surf the web under 'morning after pill'. You'll be less worried :)

Answer 5

as long as you are taking your pills the same time everyday...then you shouldnt have a problem. taking them the same time each days insures the medication is in you at all times...so if your not into the habbit already...i would quickly get into one.
