Is the emergency contraceptive pill Yuting effective within 72 hours?

Patient's question:

I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend yesterday and later took Yuting. Do you think the 72-hour emergency contraceptive pill is effective?

Doctor's answer:

When having sex without using contraception, taking emergency contraception within 72 hours after intercourse can provide some contraceptive effect. Generally, this medication causes withdrawal bleeding again within 5 to 7 days after consumption. This situation indicates a successful contraception. A small portion of people who have successfully avoided pregnancy may use a pregnancy test kit to confirm after 15 days of intercourse.
