I have taken emergency contraception pill today can we have sexual intercourse today?

Really? : I assume you took emergency contraception because you do not want to be pregnant. Assuming your goals have not change in the past few hours you should avoid intercourse unless you are using condoms or have started birth control.

NO!: Emergency contraception works only for a single episode. Use regular birth control. It works better. Use condoms and spermicide today.
