A member asked:
Does having unprotected sex afew hours after taking the morning after pill mean the pill is not effective anymore?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NO: The pill works on hormonal levels and is not affected by semen hours later, BUT why would you have unprotected sex just hours after having your partner take the Morning After pill? Please use protection and birth control.
