Answer
Dear Lizzy,
There are no pills that you can take now to avoid being pregnant.  Emergency contraception or Plan B only works up to 5 days after unprotected sex.  The best thing would be for you to take a pregnancy test. It should be positive by now if you are pregnant. If it comes out positive, you can write to me again to help decide the best option for you.
I hope this is helpful,
Doctor Joan
