Can Emergency Contraceptive Pills Prevent Pregnancy
I got my period on the 19th of November and it ended on the 25th of November. I had sex on the 1st of December without a condom and ejaculated outside. I bought and took Ella one emergency contraceptive pill in the afternoon of 2nd December. I just had sex again and also ejaculated outside, can I get pregnant?

Taking Ella one within 120 hours after unprotected sex reduces pregnancy risk . Ejaculating outside also reduces pregnancy risk . However , there is still a chance of pregnancy. Emergency contraceptives are not 100% effective. Use condoms for STI prevention.
