Emergency Contraception & Medication Interactions: What You Need to Know


Question
sorry i couldn't email you, but i have one more question. Me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex on the day before i was suppose to be the most fertile, but I'm on the pill so i don't ovulate. The next day, which is the most fertile day (today) I got sick and my dad gave me a medicine that he got from Mexico, which was ampicillin. I read that this may decrease the effectiveness. I took it twice, once today in the morning and once at night.

So my question is should I consult plan B or not be worried at all? due to the fact I'm almost done ovulating

Answer
Hey, What did you end up doing? Please let me know.
Thanks.

Hi Jazz,
You can email me anytime of course, at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com
About Plan B, I found a site that tells more about it.

I would not recommend Plan B, it sounds like women take it without really needing to sometimes. In the future, you could use 2 methods, one to be a backup. Could you consider another method as I suggested? Condoms, Natural Family planning or abstinence? Write back.
