Unprotected sex
My girlfriend and I had unprotected sex on 9th January and both of us are really concerned of the pregnancy factor. Her menstrual cycle begins at or around the 12th of every month. When searching online we noticed ECPs that they're effective within the first 72 hours of sex. What should we do if she gets her periods as normal? Should we take the ECP asap? What should be the dosage? Should we take a pregnancy test asap?
