[|Human|] Hi, I am taking mercilon. On week 2 May 17, I missed taking the tablet and had unprotected sex that night. on the next day upon realizing Imissed taking hte pill, I immediately took the msised pill and at the same time the usual pill. Query: will I get pregnant? Should I take the emergency contraceptive now? It is now may 21. thanks.
[|AI|]  Hi, The emergency contraceptive pill should be taken on the same day for it to have an effect, as such there is no point in taking one now. How long have you been on the pill, if it's been for a long time then there is a chance that you won't get pregnant. But in these things there is always a chance, especially if you were ovulating. Pills work by suppressing ovulation, if you miss one - you may ovulate. As such you can either wait till your period should start or take a home pregnancy test. I hope this answered your question.
