Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I would like to ask if it's possible to get pregnant after taking emergency contraception and having sex? My boyfriend and I haven't planned to get married yet. We had sex yesterday and took emergency contraception. Is the chance of getting pregnant still high after taking the pill? I still don't want to get pregnant.Doctor's answer:
Generally, if it is within 72 hours after sexual intercourse, there is no need to take emergency contraception, as it is effective. If it exceeds 72 hours, it is considered that contraception has been successful. In your case, there is no problem, and there is no need to worry too much. It is important to pay attention to using contraception measures regularly to prevent pregnancy and side effects. It is recommended to adopt other forms of contraception. In addition to treatment, it is important to maintain a light diet and a good mood. Only with a positive mindset and adequate sleep can you quickly recover from illness.
