Suggest Remedy For Avoiding Pregnancy After Unprotected Sex

HEllo Doctors, So I had a unprotected intercourse at 1am last night. ( So between thursday and friday today). I took Nordett ( in the philippines there is no such as morning after pills ) as an ECP at 11.50am, and will take the next 4 pills 12 hours later. I would like to know if its very effective?Should I go to the Hospital and ask them something stronger? Or everithing is ok and enough?Thanks again. Alix

Hi,
I have gone through your query and understood the concern. The medication you have taken should be effective. Moreover, if you are in the safe period of your cycle, you are naturally protected. Another alternative is to ask for the insertion of an IUD as a measure of emergency contraception. This also serves future purposes. Please remember that your menstrual cycle is going to get disturbed for one or two months as you have consumed high hormone doses. Your next natural period may get delayed and please get further help from an expert if you become overdue by ten days. Hope this helps.
