Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Taking A Morning After Pill Post Intercourse?

I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend, on Friday on Saturday I took a pill the next day. On Sunday we had it again and on Monday I resumed taking the morning-after pill. I wonder if the odds of being pregnant? Yesterday I took six iron pills from the microginol capsule to see if menses come

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You had sex on friday, saturday and sunday. You have taken morning after pill with in 24 hours of sex. But you have not mentioned the day of the period. If you had sex in safe period of cycle, then pregnancy is not possible. It will be 95-98% effective in preventing the pregnancy.

But you use morning after pill two times in short duration. It may cause early period, delay in period by 1 to 2 weeks and excessive bleeding can occur. Wait for your period. If period is delayed by more than 2 weeks, go for urine pregnancy test and or blood HCG to confirm the pregnancy.

If you will be pregnant then you can still terminate pregnancy by abortion pill under the advise of gynecologist. Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water and do regular exercise. Do not use morning after pill as regular contraception. Use condom to prevent unwanted pregnancy.

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

Regards,
Dr. Sagar
