    advice needed

    i need your help. we have been trying for a baby. i have a 25 day cycle and last month Ovulated on day 13. my lst period was the 24th of februry. we had sex on the 5th , 7th and 11th march, however on the 11th i got a call to get offered a new job, so a few hours after the deed we decided to take the morning after pill just for this month anf try again in a few months once in my job a bit longer . however i noticed a bit of bleeding on tuesday the 15th ( a week since number 1 sex), so i did a pregnancy test on thursday the 17th and it was positive. did the morning after pill fail, or was i already in the early stages of pregnancy. i thought the morning after pill either stopped fertilisation or stopped the egg from implanting?? i need you help. when would i of fallen pregnant.

    The morning after pill is about 85% effective. Is there a reason you need to know which time you fell pregnant?

    If you ovulated on day 13 of your cycle this would have been 8th March, and so it was probably DTD on the 5th or 7th that hit the spot.

    no reason why.. just curious to know if i was already pregnant. and i thought that it usually takes 7 days for the egg to be implanted, which would of been after i took the pill, so presumed that would of stopped it implanting. thankyou for your reply

    The morning after pill is only 85 percent effective if you take it 24-36 hours after unprotected sexual intercourse. It then drops to a lower effective percentage to a maximum of 72 hours. After 72 hours it does not work.

    The implantation time of a week to ten days is just am estimation. Some ladies can implant super fast hun! I know some ladies who implanted 4 days after ovulation and got a pos hpt at 6 dpo
