What Are The Chances Of Conceiving If There Was No Withdrawal Bleeding After Intercourse?

I had unprotected sex last March 2 and sadly, the next dayw as supposed to be my 14th day (ovulation day) so I took 4 pills of nordette three hours after we did it. Then another 4 pills after twelve hours. It has been 2 weeks now after we did it and I still don t have withdrawal bleeding. I don t experience any abdominal cramps or anything though. Is there a possibility I could be pregnant?

hello,

NORDETTE pill can be taken as emergency contraceptive pill with proper dose (4 + 4 tabs). As you took first dose within 3 hrs, then you will get more than 99% protection against unwanted pregnancy.

Most women get withdrawal bleeding within 5 to 7 days. However, absence of bleeding doesn't alter the effectiveness of the pill. Your period may be delayed for 1 to 2 weeks due to hormonal imbalance and mental stress. I suggest to undergo one home pregnancy test if period is delayed more than 1 week.

Practice safe sex. Good luck.
