Is Nur Isterate Injection Before The Day Of Intercourse Effective?
Hi my first day of my period was 17th of July 2015 and ended on the 22nd of July. I went to get the nur esterate injection on the last day of my period. On the 24th i had unprotected sex and would like to know if my contraception had kicked in or not.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Normally additional contraception is advised for the first 7 days after the first injection.
This means that if this was the first time you received this shot, you may not have been protected as yet.
If you persistently use this form of contraception and this is not your first shot then you would have been protected right away because some of it would have been in your system.
I hope this helps
