Will Having Unprotected Sex Followed By Intake Of 4 Nordette Pills Prevent Pregnancy?

I had unprotected sex the day before my ovulation day (according to my period diary). It was the 11th day of my cycle. He didn t ejaculate inside me but i was worried so i took 4 pills of nordette an hour after the deed, and took 4 more after 12 hours. Is there any chance i might get pregnant? Im really worried.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. You used Noredette pill as a emergency contraception in corrected dose. It is 75 to 80% effective in preventing pregnancy. So there may be some failure rate. I would suggest to wait for your period to come. If period will delay by 10 to 12 days from the normal expected period date then go for urine pregnancy test and or blood HCG test to confirm the cause.

If you will be pregnant then you can terminate the intrauterine pregnancy by abortion pill under the advise of gynecologist. In future use condom and i-pill with in 24 hours of sex to prevent the unwanted pregnancy.

Hope this may help you. Contact further if follow up needed.

Best regards,
Dr. Sagar
