I think it'd just be better if you bought another pill & took it. Just to be sure, because then you know that you're not pregnat for sure, but now you might be worried. So just to make everything better, buy another dosage of pills.
Good luck, I hope I helped.

The literature Ive read on the MAP says that it is not meant to be taken in a preventative capacity. In other words, you don't take it before you have sex, there are zero guarantees on effectiveness.
Now, how it actually works, and how long it would stay in your system I don't know. MAP is basically a larger dose of a common birth control hormone, but I can't say that you have any assurances. I would take another to be safe.
Also, look into VCF. Vaginal contraceptive film. If you are going to have sex, this is a second line of defense.
Its a spermicidal film. You basically fold up this little thing that looks like a breath strip and put it inside you. Wait 15 minutes, and it melts into a spermicidal gel similar to what is on the outside of a spermicidal lube condom. The box says its something like 85% sure to block pregnancy when no other forms of contraception are used, so used WITH a condom (its condom safe) it another line of defense to prevent pregnancy.

im not exactly sure how BC works, but i think you have to take it EVERY DAY or there's a slight possibility you could get pregnant, especially if the sperm is still in your system.
but no matter how much BC you take and whether you wear a condom or not, theres always the risk of getting pregnant.
i wish the best for you. :)
