When I had sex we did use a condom but I'm terrified that it could have broken. When I came upon this realization I took double the doses of birth control for under 48 hours. (No, I hadn't been taking birth control regularly) Then I took an Emergency Contraception Pill. Will the double doses of birth control lower the chances of the ECP working properly?
