What should I do??

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the effectiveness of emergency contraception is 72 hours. If you have sex within 72 hours, you will not get pregnant. Note that you should not take emergency contraception more than twice in a month or more than three times in a year. It should not be used as regular contraception. Excessive use can not only reduce its effectiveness but also cause menstrual disorders. In severe cases, it may lead to infertility. It is recommended to take contraceptive measures before sexual activity.
