Do I need an ECP?

2018-04-05 20:48:41
Doctor, I have been on finer for three months now. I always take my pill at the same time each day. I've just recently finished my 7 inactive pills and had started back on the active pills straight away (yesterday). I also had sex yesterday night when I took my first active pill. my friend said that if I don't take 7 active pills on a row I would be at risk of pregnancy...hence my question is am I still protected or do I need an emergency pill today? Thank you.
