If you had unprotected sex and want to prevent pregnancy, you can take an emergency pill, levonorgestrel within 72 hours (3 days) or ulipristal within 120 hours (5 days). Ulipristal is more effective if more than 72 hours have already passed. A copper IUD can also be placed within 5 days and is the most effective option. These methods prevent pregnancy but will not end an existing one. If you think you might already be pregnant, it’s best to see a doctor first, who can guide you safely after the proper tests.

No, you should not take Unwanted-21 Days tablets after being physically intimate or missing your period, as this medicine is a regular birth control pill meant to be taken daily in advance to prevent pregnancy, not after intercourse. If your period is late, first take a pregnancy test to confirm whether you are pregnant. If the test is negative and your periods remain delayed, consult a gynaecologist for proper evaluation. For emergency contraception, a tablet like Unwanted-72 should be taken within 72 hours of physical intimacy, as Unwanted-21 Days will not work in such cases.
