Can you get pregnant after emergency contraception?

Patient's question:

My girlfriend didn't read the instructions and took two doses of the morning-after pill (Yuteng) in one go. Is it effective? Will she still get pregnant? What are the side effects?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it is useful. It is best to take one more pill to ensure it. The effect is that the next menstrual period may be abnormal. Actually, there is a good method. After unprotected intercourse, use a rapid early pregnancy test kit to check urine 24 hours later. If it is not positive, you don't need to take post-coital contraception pills. If it is positive, you need to take them. Post-coital contraception pills are effective if taken within 72 hours after intercourse.
