Will The Morning After Pill Work In Consecutive Months?

Hello I took the morning after pill last month and had my period (it was early) and I took it again this month. Will it still work? I actually didn't have sex on both ocassions but his penis (and cum) was in contact with my vagina although he didn't enter me.

Hi
Yes the morning after pill works whenever taken. It does work when taken in consecutive months.
Even the cum contains sperms. Therefore you have done the right thing by taking morning after pill to avoid pregnancy.
If you have regular cycles of 26-30days then the first week and the last ten days of your cycle are safe period. Having sex during those days does not make you pregnant. I wrote this as i felt this information is useful for you.

I have a advise for you. If you wish to avoid pregnancy it is better for you to discuss with your doctor and use birth control pills or have copper intrauterine devise fitted. They are more effective than morning after pill in preventing pregnancy.

The morning after pill if used within 24 hours of unprotected sex is 95% effective. Since there is a small chance of failure of the method, if your period is delayed for more than a week consult your doctor.
I hope I have answered to your satisfaction.
