Question
Hello...

Just wonder how effective is the next morning pill if i took it before the 72 hours window....I had unprotected sex on Dec 12th @ 3 am and 13th @ 3 am took the pill on Dec 14th before 12 pm...I took a pregnancy test that afternoon and it came back positive?....was I already pregnant?

Answer
Hello MS. I'm a little confused about your question. You are mentioning Dec 12th. Are you sure that your pregnancy test was positive and are you for sure pregnant? When is your due date?
Please email me at CHERYL51@aol.com and we can talk more. Hope to hear from you soon.
