A member asked:
Had unprotected sex on expected ovulation day. took emergency contraceptive 50 to 60 hours after. will it still work?

Morning after pill: It is good that you took the pills, but be prepared that they did not work. Take a pregnancy test in a week, and if that one is negative, then take another test near your anticipated menses. If that one is negative too, you are in all likelihood not pregnant.
