Prevention is always better
Just not about the pregnancy but also sexually transmitted infections to be considered
Take I pill, something is better than nothing
If it's taken within 12 hours, failure rate is less, but can be taken within 72 hours
But if u have already ovulated, chances of pregnancy are there, don't worry, consult the doctor
Next Steps
take I pill, wait for next menses date, if you miss your periods, do urine pregnancy test
Health Tips
be careful next time

You need to be educated about the fact that prevention is before the act never after
Once the act has been done there is no way to prevent an unwanted pregnancy
Emergency pills have a very high failure rate
Your only option is to wait for the next set of period
