Will you get pregnant if you have sex 10 hours after taking birth control pills?

Patient's question:

After taking the birth control pill for ten hours, I did it internally these days. I did a lot externally today. My lower abdomen doesn't feel comfortable, and it hurts when pressed. Is it possible that I'm pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

You can describe your condition based on your illness. Generally, emergency contraception is effective within 72 hours after intercourse. The use of oral contraceptives reduces the chance of accidental pregnancy. It is recommended that if you do not plan to get pregnant, you must take proper contraceptive measures, such as oral contraceptives or using barrier methods. Intercourse during the ovulation period of the woman increases the likelihood of conception. For women with regular menstrual cycles, ovulation usually occurs around 14 days before the next menstrual period.
