    Become a member to remove this ad.
    I take althea every month for my pcos, but i stop last Thursday.
    if i have sex with my bf 2 days before, although he cum outside my body, but then we keep on doing it after that.
    i dont know am i safe, but if i take althea now, will it works?
    or should i take other emergency contraception pill? any recommendation?
    i have read that some website says that the pill can be taken 120 hours after but some say 72 hours, now it's already 2nd days, I am a bit worried.

    I'm not sure what althea is but best to call your pharmacist and get it straight from the horses mouth whether or not it can be used for that purpose and if some other emergency contraceptive would interact with it. Time's a wasting so get to calling them... you don't want to feel make yourself sick mixing medicines or not taking the right thing to protect you from pregnancy.

    Him going back inside of you after ejaculating outside of your body does put you at risk for pregancy.. the next time you guys did it... his pre ejaculate could have sperm in it from that recent ejaculation.

    But call your doctor or pharmasist before trying some medicine that isn't specifically for that purpose or before taking more medicine that can be harmful or interact with one another either making you sick or failing to do their job.
    Scars remind us of where we've been...they don't have to dictate where we're going.
