Can a contraceptive be of any use when it is taken one week after mating?

Too late I am afraid, the morning after pill should be taken within 72 hours after intercourse.

@nosilla,did you say 72hours,i hear its 24hrs, x-real,u're really in a big shit cos its too late.Quickly go and check up urself.

its 72 hrs after that make you cross your fingers and pray say you no get bele  lol

I was sure it was 72 hours however I have just done a google search and found this:

Also known as emergency contraception, the "morning after pill" is a high dose of birth control pills taken within 120 hours (or five days) after unprotected intercourse to prevent pregnancy. The sooner it is taken, the more effective it is. Emergency contraception (EC) is not to be confused with RU-486 (mifepristone), a pill that causes medical/chemical abortion in pregnant women within 49 days from the first day of their last menstrual period.


Sorry xreal I think your too late.
