thank you for using HCM. I will do my best to help you. if you are referring to the morning after pill, that only works within 72 hours of having unprotected intercourse. that prevents pregnancy from occurring. however, if she is already pregnant, it is too late for that. she can terminate the pregnancy though by using mifepristone, and that needs to be prescribed by a doctor. in general that can be done until around 8 weeks or so into the pregnancy. it sounds like that is still possible for you, so you can find a doctor in your area that can do that for you. after that time period, the only option would be a surgical abortion. i hope this was helpful, please let me know if you have any more questions.
