The morning after pill is very effective ,

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to healthcare magic.
I am Dr Ramadevi Wani. I will be answering your concerns.

The morning after pill is more than 95% effective in preventing pregnancy. So it should protect you against pregnancy.
In case you do not get your periods as scheduled, then get a pregnancy test done ( as there is a very small possibility of method failure).

If you have further concerns, I will be happy to answer.
Best wishes,
Dr Rama
