Thanks for using the Ask a Doctor service.
You need to go for some emergency contraceptive pills (ECP) like iPill and Unwanted 72. They are being sold OTC (Over-The-Counter) across XXXXXXX and so getting them should not be a problem. Follow the package insert. This cannot be saved for later.
Subsequently also get a lower abdominal ultrasound done to detect the cause of irregularity of the periods.
Feel free to write back.

what if the pill won't work now and she got pregnant, what can be done in that case?
Brief Answer:
Alternatives available
Detailed Answer:
Sorry for the inadvertent delay in responding. There is no reason for this emergency contraception method to fail (if done at proper time). However, if it does, there are alternative methods, both medical and surgical which may be opted for based on the scenario.
