How To Check If Ovulation Has Occurred?
I had sex but the condom broke. As a precaution I had Nordette (4 pills) I have to take another dose after 12 hours. I read online that it wouldn t work if I have already ovulated. If yes how do I find out that I haven t ovulated already? Will the pill still work? I m in the Philippines currently.

Hi there
i can understand your concern.
There are many ways to find about ovulation date.
There are accurate methods like ultrasound scan and hormonal evaluation.
In many countries urine testing kits are available to find about the date of ovulation.
The emergency contraceptive method you adapted is correct and is effective even the ovulation had taken place.
The Nordette contains levonorgestrel and ethinyl estradiol which acts by preventing the implantation of ovum.
don't worry
stay relaxed.
Best regards
