What should I do if I took a birth control pill within 72 hours?

Patient's question:

I took the first pill of Yuting within 72 hours, but it has been 16 hours.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, for emergency contraception pills, both pills cannot exceed 72 hours. Take one pill immediately after intercourse, and then take the second pill 12 hours later. Emergency contraception pills can cause significant harm to a woman's body, and multiple uses may affect future fertility. It is best not to take them in the future.
