Patient's question:
I calculated that today, the 30th, is probably ovulation day. In the morning, I had sexual intercourse with my husband, and we didn't take any contraceptive measures. I'm not sure if I might be pregnant. How many days after this situation can a pregnancy test usually show results?Doctor's answer:
Hello, having sex during ovulation increases the chance of pregnancy. Withdrawal before ejaculation also carries the possibility of pregnancy. Emergency contraception pills are only effective if taken within 72 hours after sexual intercourse; beyond this time, they have no contraceptive effect. The earlier emergency contraception pills are taken, the better their effectiveness.
