Will EllaOne work? Hello, I had sex with my boyfriend on the 3rd day of menstruation without protection. As far as I know, there are little chances of getting pregnant, but for peace of mind I want to take a pill after. Today it is exactly 56 hours from intercourse. Is there still a chance that the tablet will work? In general, menstruation I have irregular exactly as to the days

In order to prevent pregnancy, EllaOne should be taken as soon as possible after intercourse, within a maximum of 5 days (120 hours) - that is, yes, a tablet taken 56 hours after intercourse will work. EllaOne contains ulipristal acetate, which affects the activity of the hormone progesterone, causing a delay in ovulation and thus preventing fertilization.
