One of the question that almost every woman starts asking after having unprotected sex and resulting to morning after pills also known as emergency contraception, is how often the pills need to be taken to be effective in preventing pregnancy?As a rule of thumb, the sooner they are taken after unprotected sex the better. The effectiveness depends on how consistent you're in taking the pills. Risk of getting pregnant is high when you start a new pill pack 3 or more days late, or you missed 3 or more pills near the beginning or end of a pill pack.
It's recommended that you take one pill daily and start each new pack of pills on time. In some cases, with the daily hustle and bustle of life, it's easy to forget taking a pill or even take it late. In such these circumstance, if you're a frequent user of these emergency contraception, then you're familiar with the instructions provided with the pack.
