Hallow Dear,
Morning after pill is to be taken within 72 hours of the unprotected sex. Taken later may not be successful in preventing pregnancy.
The other alternative, if you are late, is to get intrauterine device like CuT fitted within 5 days of the unprotected sex at the local health department. This also can prevent the pregnancy
Both the methods if adopted within prescribed time, are very successful in preventing the pregnancy.
I hope this helps you.
