Lo Loestrin emergency contraceptive

Hello, yesterday approximately at 7:12pm on Saturday March 5th my boyfriend and I experienced a broken condom. I have been taking Lo Loestrin for about a month now and am on my second row on my second package. I have been researching since, that I should be able to take 2 Lo Loestrin pills and that they work as an emergency contraceptive. Can someone please confirm with me on whether or not I can.

I'm sorry to just be getting to your post. If you started your pills more than a month ago I take it you had a period and then started on them again? If so, you have nothing to worry about.
With some pills you have to use condoms the first month until your pills start working. After the second month on them you have nothing to worry about as far as getting pregnant. Make sure to take them everyday around the same time. The pill is very effective if you take them the right way.
Hopefully you didn't take that extra pill because this will mess up your schedule with your pills and possibly your period.
Try not to stress. I don't see how you could be pregnant if you're on your second pack of pills.
