Could Taking Morning-after Pill After Having Sex Prevent Pregnancy?

I had sex with my boyfriend, we used a condom. he cummed inside the condom, but the condom got stuck inside of me. when we were done, we couldn t find it... his cum was on his sheets and I went to the bathroom to see if ur was there, and it was!! I pulled it out and I went pee. what are my chances of being pregnant??? I took the morning after pill the next morning at 8 am. could I be pregnant?

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Morning after pill is nothing but emergency contraceptive pill, which should be taken within 48 hours after having unprotected intercourse. Earlier you take it, it is likely to offer better protection against getting pregnant.
What you have done is right thing.
After you take the pill, you need to get your periods within 3 weeks from the day of taking the pills. This would ensure that you are not pregnant.
In case this doesn't happen, you need to take medical help immediately.
Hope the information provided would be useful.
Al the best.
