Answer
Hello! The single-pill is an emergency contraceptive pill, about the use of the emergency contraceptive pill within 72 hours of having sex you should take the emergency contraceptive pill as soon as possible. The sooner the medication is taken, the more effective it is. If using the drug after 72 hours, the contraceptive effect will be significantly reduced, many cases of contraception failure.
However, according to medical experts, emergency contraception should not be overused. Do not use more than 2 doses / month and more than 3 times / year to protect your health, especially fertility.
