Can you still get pregnant if you've had unprotected sex and then take birth control pills afterward? I'm really anxious and just want to understand what my options are.

Question

I'm a bit worried and need some advice. I'm 16, and a couple of days ago, I lost my virginity with my boyfriend. We used a condom, and it didn't break or slip, and he didn't cum in it, so I thought pregnancy wasn't a possibility. Still, I'm feeling stressed and anxious because since the day after, I've been having stomach pains. I haven't told my parents because of my age, and they don't know about the pains I'm having. Is it normal to experience stomach aches after having sex for the first time? I've been taking paracetamol because they seem to help with the pain. My period usually starts at the beginning of every month, and I only sometimes get cramps a week beforehand. Could these pains be related?

I'm currently breastfeeding and thinking about taking Revital H Woman, which has ginseng extract. Is it safe for me and my baby? Could there be any side effects I should be worried about?
