Patient's question:
My boyfriend came from a distant place, we had sex without contraception, and afterwards I took emergency contraception pills. Will taking emergency contraception pills result in pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Emergency contraception is generally effective within 72 hours. If you don't vomit after taking the oral medication, it usually provides some contraceptive effect. So, there's no need to worry. It is recommended to use condoms more often in the future, as they can also prevent the spread of diseases. As long as you take the medication within 72 hours, it will be effective. In the future, you can also opt for sexual activity during your safe period. Pay attention to your personal lifestyle and maintain a healthy diet.
