When can a woman start ongoing birth control after taking EC?

A woman can begin using any hormonal contraceptive the day after taking EC, or she can use a barrier method until her next period arrives. If she starts taking birth control pills the day after taking EC and does not get a regular period during the placebo pill week, she will need to do a pregnancy test since EC is not 100% effective.
