How Effective Is Metaformin In Avoiding Pregnancy After Unprotected Sex?

I had unprotected sex and I took metaformin as a morning after pill. Will I still get pregnant? I found out I do not have diabetes and I am fertile. I have regular periods and I am pretty sure I ovulate every month. Last time I took metaformin after un protected sex as a morning after pill I did not get pregnant. I heard it helps you be more fertile instead. What s going on with my body? And will I get pregnant?

Thank you for query.there is no role of metformin in preventing pregnancy it is anti diabetic drug and in fact has a role in infertile women with PCOD.So do not rely on metformin for preventing pregnancy.Consult doctor for i pill prescription or other methods if possible and further management.
