According to the symptoms you provided (taken one birth control pill approximately 14 hours after usual time and having intercourse the same morning and the night before), it seems that there is a possibility that you were not completely protected. The recommended regime for most birth control pills is taking the pill at the exact same time every day in order to keep the level of the contraceptive hormones in the blood steady. The pill package usually contains 21 pills which are active (containing hormones) and 7 which are not active (do not contain hormones).


The morning after pill is an emergency contraception product which contains hormones that prevent fertilization. It is taken up to 12 hours from the intercourse. The second pill is taken 12 hours after the first pill. It is especially recommendable if the woman is in her ovulation days or close to that period.


You might want to take the morning after pill and have a consultation with your gynecologist in order to prevent pregnancy. Please note that you might experience menstrual irregularities afterwards as a result of a hormonal imbalance caused by the morning after pill.
