Hello,

If you take an emergency pill it works only for one occasion the latest, not for previous intercourses.

So there is a great probability of being pregnant. You can use a pregnancy home test at least 5 days of delayed period to confirm if you are pregnant or not. Use an every day contraception method for the other months if you are not pregnant.

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

Take care

Regards,
