Will I get pregnant if I have sex on the day after ovulation and then take birth control pills?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I would like to ask when is the approximate time of ovulation?
Hello, how can I have intercourse during ovulation? If I can't, what are the remedies? Would I get pregnant if I take birth control pills one day after having intercourse during ovulation? Do I need to go to the hospital for a thorough check-up?

Doctor's answer:

The time of menopause is relatively regular. About 14 days before menstruation, you can have sexual activity during the ovulation period. However, if you are not planning to get pregnant, you need to take contraceptive measures. If you are not breastfeeding, taking emergency contraception within 72 hours after sexual activity can help correct the situation. But be careful to take emergency contraception instead of short-term contraception. If sexual activity occurs again, there is no need for a thorough check-up.
