A member asked:
Took bc 13 hrs late in 2nd week of pack, been taking it perfectly. had unprotected sex within less than an hour of before taking late pill. what to do?

Protected...: You are still protected! Being 13 hours late only slightly decreases the pill's effectiveness so it is unlikely that you are pregnant if you have otherwise been taking it normally. Best wishes!
