A member asked:
Will the morning after pill be effective after taking it 55 hours later, and is almost certain that they are ovulating?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Should be: The morning after pill is effective up to 72 hours after intercourse. It prevents implantation of a potentially fertilized egg into the uterine wall. The sooner after intercourse the higher the chances of preventing pregnancy.
