What Are The Risks For Using Emergency Contraceptive?

I m currently on lo loestrin fe and have been for about 9 months and while having sex with my boyfriend the condom broke. after that we immeadatly bought Plan B and I took it right then and there. I just started the second row of this months pack so I was wondering what the risk is of me actually being pregnant?

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Do not worry
You are completely safe.
You are already on the lo loestrin fe and it is good contraceptive pill.
It is highly effective in preventing the pregnancy (0.5-1% failure rate).
Actually no need to take plan B pill as you are already on lo loestrin fe.
So no risk of pregnancy.
But your period can be delayed/earlier, excessive bleeding will occur.
Meanwhile avoid stress, take healthy diet, do regular exercise, drink plenty of water.
Hope this may help you
