Hi, I understand your query. Morning after pill has a high dose of hormone which avoids conception, if taken within 72 hours of sex / In already existing pregnancy morning after pill is contraindicated.. as it causes congenital malformations in fetus. Even if it si taken by mistake in [pregnant sate, MTP is advised. Thanks.
