Hi
Welcome to Healthcare Magic Forum
Please mention ur last menses date. If this happned just befor ur periods, there is no possiblility of pregnancy.
If this happened around the middle of the cycle (counting from 1st day of periods) , then pregnancy is possible.
Pregnancy test is to be done after you miss ur period, only then it gives the right result.
Emergency contraceptive is to be taken withing 72 hrs of unprotected intercourse.
Takecare.
