Took Novelon Tablet After Unprotected Sex. Will It Be Effective? Can Take Another Pill?
Hi.. My partner took a Novelon tablet after we had an unsafe sex. Now we are worried about it being effective or not as i read that Novelon are low-dose contraceptives. Moreover i read about novelon that it has to be taken continually to avoid pregnancy unlike i-pill which is used one time after sex. It hasn't been 72 hours since we had sex. Can she take any other pill like i-pill ??

Hi,
Novelon is not emergency contraceptive pill but regular contraceptive pill.
It is not going to work.
As 72 hours are not passed she can take I-pill as soon as possible.
Ok and take care.
