A member asked:

I'm on the mini pill for a week now and i'm also on my period. i had unprotected sex though, should i take plan b?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

There is no need to take Plan B in addition to the mini pill as they are essentially if not exactly the same medication. Continue to consistently take the mini pill, but remember that no birth control is 100% effective. Please be careful.
