Hello,
I have gone through your query and understood the concern. If you ad the intercourse during the safe period, you do not need any emergency contraception. However, if you are around the fertile or ovulation period, you need to take emergency contraception if you do not wish a pregnancy. Marvelon cannot help in a single dose; you have to go for a proper emergency pill. You can also opt for the insertion of an IUD if you need prolonged contraception. With the use of emergency contraceptive pill, there can be some menstrual disturbance and delayed period. If you become overdue by ten days, you have to see a specialist for further help. Hope I have answered your query. Wish you good health.
