Pregnant - Threw up pill

Hi ladies!

Last Saturday my boyfriend and I had sex around 2 pm, and as I'm on the pill he finished inside of me. It was the 2nd week of my pack. I took my pill at 8:40 the next morning, and threw it up around 2 hours later due to a hangover. I've never missed another pill in the 3 months I've taken it, and I've taken it perfectly every since. 

 

Are the chances of me getting pregnant high? Because I'm really stressing out about it, which I know won't help with my period being late. But I need another lady's opinion. Thank you!

Absorption

  • Birth control pills, which are taken orally, take longer to work than birth control patches or injections because the pill must be digested and the hormones absorbed into the blood. The pill must move through the stomach, possibly into the intestine, where it will be absorbed through the lining by the bloodstream. Generally, if a woman takes her birth control pill and vomits within two hours, it's likely that the pill wasn't given enough time to get into her system. Full absorption usually takes between two and three hours.

There's a chance it could have been absorbed by your body by then, but I personally would take Plan B just to be safe. :smileyhappy:
