MY girlfriend started the tri-something pill just 10 days ago. Last night i ejaculated in her. She said it was fine, but i have worries. My question is... Is it too early? Would she get pregnant this time on her regular period? Basically should i be worried? I need answers... FAST

As long as she is taking her pill everday then it is fine. She was protected already when she was on it for 7 days.

You and your girlfriend are fine. As the previous poster said, as long as your girlfriend has been taking her pills every day around the same time, you were fully protected.

Well i have a different opinion from what my gynocologist told me..
the pill is FULLY effective after you've been on it for 2 - 3 weeks but i still wouldn't trust it.

It wouldn't hurt to get a test done anyways but you may possibly be fine!

i've been on the pill for 3 months now and my boyfriend has only done so a few times but even though i would be fully covered now we've decided not to do it again as its too risky... my mum got preggers while on the pill, so did his and his sister.. so yeah

No need to take a test. The pill is fully effective after seven days of correct use. It is highly effective, and when taken perfectly only 1-3 women out of a thousand will get pregnant while taking it.

Some doctors advise their patients to wait 2-3 weeks not so the pill will be fully effective, but so the patient is fully effective. That is, the patient is used to taking the pill, and taking it correctly.
