Help!

I have my sleeve surgery two weeks from tomorrow..on the 24th. I stopped taking my birth control pills about 2 weeks ago and I had unprotected sex today. I know it was so stupid! Can I take the morning after pill? Will it interfere with my upcoming surgery?? Please help! I'm going to call my surgeons office tomorrow but I'm kind of freaking out!

They gave me a pregnancy test 5 days before my surgery during pre-op testing, and then again on the day of surgery even though I was on my period. They will not operate if you have a positive test.

I'm just asking because they said to stop taking the birth control pill at least 2 weeks before. I guess it increases ur chances of blood clots. I called the office but everyone is in the OR and the lady said she would have to call back later ugh....

I was freaking out so I ended up taking the plan B but now I'm very worried that they are going to have to move my surgery back. I already asked for time off of work and everything. I'm so mad at myself

I'm pretty sure they just want u to stop taking everyday meds. I still took Tylenol and such... idk the answer but I wouldn't stress it. U wouldn't be the only one to go against the rules

Yea ur right..now I'm nervous that I called and that they know so they could delay my surgery

The morning after pill should not affect your surgery in any way. You will be fine. Relax, you're almost there!
