Hi

Only a pregnancy test or onset of periods can confirm or rule out pregnancy.

Pregnancy tests are accurate when done 10 days after missing the period or at least one to two weeks after you had sex.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hello,

Morning after pills are very effective pills with low failure rate. The chances for pregnancy is very very low. If you are worried you can simply go for a urine pregnancy test(UPT) for reassurance.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
