Good morning. He writes with a question. I have 26-28 day cycles. Variously. I had my last menstrual period: 10.05.2022r. Today- that is, 22.05.22 a condom broke with our fiancé. The semen remained inside. It turns out that I could have ovulation but not necessarily yet because, as I mentioned earlier, I have cycles of 26, 27 or 28 days. I took the escapelle tablet 7 hours after intercourse. Is there a good chance of pregnancy?

I enclose an excerpt from our article that answers your question: "The exact mechanism of action of Escapelle is not known. There are sources that say that it blocks ovulation when it is taken up to 2 days before its occurrence. However, it is believed that it can work not only by inhibiting the release of the egg by the ovaries and preventing the fertilization of the already released egg, but also by stopping the fertilized egg from implanting in the endometrium. Many studies, however, do not confirm this effect, and even indicate the lack of effect of the tablet on the endometrial (endometrial) receptors and its ability to receive the embryo."

And will the pill work even if I took it on the day of ovulation?

The effectiveness of Escapelle after taking within 7 hours of intercourse is high, so the risk of becoming pregnant is low. It is worth remembering that the effectiveness of the product is not 100%. In case of suspicion of pregnancy, after 7-10 days after intercourse, a pregnancy test can be performed to dispel any doubts.
