Hi there,
After going through your query, I am of the opinion that:
1) There are high chances of pregnancy as it is day 12 of your periods.
2) If no post coital pills are available, best option is the yuzpe method, ie taking 4 tablets of low dose oral contraceptives like yasmin or ovral and repeating after 12 hours.
3) However, there are still chances of pregnancy as this method has a high failure rate.
4) My suggestion is you take these pills at 4 am and then 7 pm.
Hope this was helpful
Regards,
Dr. Shikha
