Hey all,
I've never considered myself overweight and until recently my BMI has been about 22, being about 5'4 and 130 lbs. Yet sometime within the last year, I've gained 20 lbs, maybe due to my antidepressant but hopefully just due to my previous desk job.
My monogamous partner and I had sex 3 days ago and the condom broke, the semen ending up inside of me. I had just finished my period that day, but even though the chance was rare, I took plan b just to be safe.
Now I'm remembering that there is a chance that that could have been less effective because my BMI is now in the overweight area, even though, to me, I do not look overweight and am actively trying to bring it back down.
Do you think I have cause for concern? I know you can't tell me for sure but I am currently on a work visa in Australia as an America citizen so it's not so easy to rush in somewhere tomorrow and get an iud implanted. Also, that same night we had unprotected sex, I had plans to start oral contraceptives and did so, if that means anything.
Thanks.
