Brief Answer:
Very less chances.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney.
I understand your concern.
If she has taken the emergency contraception within 24 hours of having intercourse then chances of getting pregnant are very less.
But you should understand that any contraceptive method doesn't give you 100% guarantee or safety.
So risk is there but very less.
I hope it helps.
If you have any further query, please ask me.

Ok, so it doesn't matter how many times i ejaculated inside her as long as she takes a contraceptive within 24 hrs?

Answered by Dr. Anshul Varshney (3 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
No it doesn't matter.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Friend.
How many times you ejaculated inside doesn't matter or affects the capacity of the pill to prevent pregnancy.
You should also learn that emergency contraception is meant only for emergency. She should not use it regularly.
If you have any further query please ask me.
