I took the morning-after pill without knowing that I had just had my period. Do I have a chance of getting pregnant?

Good evening, ma'am,

If you took the morning-after pill less than 3 days after the risky sex and you also had your period in the 5 days before the risky sex, then your chances of getting pregnant are practically zero.

Good evening,

I worked as a pharmacist in the emergency department of the Granby Hospital for 6 years before dedicating myself to Ask your Pharmacist. I completed my education in telehealth at Jefferson University in Philadelphia and are recently completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Health Informatics at Université de Sherbrooke.
