Hello,

Yes, Ovral g medicine can be effective in preventing pregnancy if taken within 72 hour of unprotected intercourse. It can be used as emergency pill to preventing pregnancy as well.

It is very much effective in preventing pregnancy but somehow if your next period is delayed than rule out pregnancy by urine HCG card test. Also, consult a gynecologist for examination.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Parth Goswami
