"Ladies, if you&#039;re reading this and worried the pill won&#039;t work, relax and try not to stress because it does. And thank you to everyone who posted their experiences, reading them helped me not stress. My boyfriend and I had protected sex on Saturday and the condom broke at some point that I&#039;m not sure of. I took this 6 hours later. I experienced light cramping and then got my period a few days early. I was also fertile when the incident occurred so I was extra nervous. If you take the pill as soon as possible and before 72 hours, then you will be okay!"
