Can you still get pregnant after taking emergency contraception after sex?

Patient's question:

I had my period on October 21st and it ended on the 25th. On November 4th at 5 a.m., we had sexual intercourse. At 8:30 p.m. that evening, I took a levonorgestrel pill. The next morning at 8:30 a.m., I took another one. However, I haven't had my period yet, and it has been 47 days. How can I get pregnant?
Previous treatment history and effectiveness: Levonorgestrel pills. What help do you need: Please give me an estimate on how to get pregnant.

Doctor's answer:

Assumption of the condition: Based on your description, you had sexual intercourse during the ovulation period, but took an oral contraceptive afterward. According to your current condition, it is mainly considered that the menstrual irregularity is caused by taking the contraceptive.
Advice: Currently, pay attention to rest and nutrition. It is recommended to visit a hospital for an ultrasound and a checkup of the six sex hormones to diagnose the cause and provide symptomatic treatment. At the same time, maintain a positive mindset and avoid excessive tension. It is better to use condoms during future sexual intercourse and avoid taking too many oral contraceptives to prevent menstrual irregularity or even infertility.
