    Emergency Contraception

    It may, if taken in a manner like this.
    But no "after" pill is 100 percent, so there is a chance of pregnancy

    Hi,

    The longer you wait the less effective it will be, they're usually only effective within 3 days of unprotected sex. They're a huge dose of hormone to attempt to prevent ovulation and implantation. If either of these things have happened within the two days since the sexual encounter then the pill could be largely ineffective. You can take it, but you might still be pregnant.

I am 23 years old, I'm getting married in 18 days. My doctor told me to take Ovral-l, starting from the first day of my period. But my periods ended 2 days back. I can't wait till my next period, neither can I take the risk of not taking the pill. Should I start taking the pill from today...
