Is my 20-year-old fianc?e at risk of pregnancy if she took an i-pill five hours after unprotected sex (without ejaculation), even though she had already missed her period last month?

Asked by Male, 23 · 13 days ago

Taking the emergency contraceptive pill (i-pill, containing levonorgestrel) within five hours is highly effective at preventing pregnancy from this recent intercourse, especially without ejaculation. However, since she had already missed her period last month, she could potentially be pregnant from an earlier cycle. The emergency pill cannot reverse an existing pregnancy. To give you both peace of mind, I gently suggest she takes a home pregnancy test. If it is negative, her missed period may just be due to hormonal changes or stress.
