Can Loestin 24 Fe Be Used As Emergency Contraceptive After Malfunction With Condom?

Hi, I was wondering if I could use Loestrin 24 Fe as an emergency contraceptive. My last period was from last wednesday to last sunday, and last month I have missed quite a bit of doses. However, last night, there was a malfunction with the condom and now I am worried. Plan-B is not an option for me, currently.
