A member asked:
When should the pills be taken after unprotected sex?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
As soon as possible: If you're going to use emergency contraception (morning after pills), it should be used before you ovulate. Take them as soon as you can, and definitely within 72 hours of your unprotected sex. And while you're digesting the pills, call your doctor so you can get a more reliable and tolerable form of contraception.
