Hi Anon,

Thank you for sharing your question with EmpowHER!

Anytime you do have unprotected sex, it increases your chances of pregnancy, so that's good you did use protection!

Ovulation is the most fertile time of a woman's menstrual cycle. Ovulation usually occurs around day 12 to day 16 counting from day 1 of the last menstrual cycle. Since you took EC around the 28th, that would certainly lower chances of pregnancy.

The only real way to know if you are pregnant is by taking a pregnancy test. To be completely sure, I would take one and it can help ease some fears too.

Hope this helps!

Best,
Erin
