Can I become pregnant even after taking Yasmin tablets?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I removed the IUD recently as I was not sexually active. I had unprotected sex after a week, and I took Yasmin. I read that increased intake of Yasmin can work as an emergency pill. I took five tablets in the afternoon, another five tablets after eight hours, and again five tablets after six hours. I got my last period a month ago, and it was delayed for two days when I had unprotected sex. Can I have a chance to become pregnant even after taking Yasmin?

Kindly advise.

Please tell the exact time of IUD removal, the precise time of the last period, current period, and the last exposure.

I hope this helps you.

Hello doctor,

I removed the IUD a month ago. I got my last period after three days of removing the IUD. I should get my current period soon. Last month was my recent exposure.

Kindly advise.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

As you had your last exposure in a safe period and took Drospirenone, it is unlikely to have implantation. You can have withdrawal bleeding soon. If you do not get periods, you should do a urine pregnancy test and consult a gynecologist soon.

I hope you are satisfied with my answer. For further queries, you can consult me at iCliniq.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

Yes, Yasmin can disrupt the normal cycle. You can have withdrawal bleeding soon, and you can also have periods. It can vary.

I hope you are satisfied with my answer. For further queries, you can consult me at iCliniq.

Thank you.
