Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Taking An Emergency Contraceptive Pill After Intercourse?
Hello doctor, I had sex on 16th April , I had taken emergency pill... My periods were due on 10th May but I haven t got it still.... I got my pregnancy test through pregames on 17th May. Results were negative..... Now I feel my belly button sensitive.... Is there ny chances of me being pregnant
Emergency contraceptive pill has very high success rate, there are least chances of its failure when not taken within 24 hours of unprotected intercourse. Negative urinary test indicates absence of pregnancy till date. Delay in menses is possible through hormonal imbalance caused by the pill itself. Still wait for further 3 to 4 days for natural menses to come or else you can consult doctor later.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Purva Patel
