Does Taking Diane Twelve Hours After Unprotected Intercourse Prevent Pregnancy?

Good day! Just wanna ask if there's a big chance of getting pregnant since I took my first Diane pill last Feb 27 and had an intercourse with my husband after 12 hrs. I started my pills due to an emergency exit of my hubby from his work( cruise ship) and I wasnt kinda ready so Ive decided to start the pill. My LMP was feb 14..thank you so much. Im on my 4th day of pill.

Hi,

Diane contraception is a combined contraception method of progesterone and estrogen-like hormones.

It can be started first day of period and it gives protection after first week. The first week you should use condoms.

In your case, you are not protected so can use an emergency pill.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
