I am on Minastrin FE birth control and missed a pill, taking it 12 hours late. I resumed taking it normally but had unprotected sex and took Plan B. Five days later, a condom broke and I took another Plan B. Over the past six days, I've been taking my regular birth control and two Plan Bs. Is it safe?
