Hello Anonymous,

Taking the pill six hours later than directed may affect its effectiveness slightly.

Taking the second dose a little early or a little late (like a difference of two hours) will probably not make a difference in how effective the pills are.

But, six hours late...check with a pharmacist.

Hello Anonymous,

The bleeding was proof the emergency contraceptive worked.

This pill prevents pregnancy by preventing ovulation. That protection lasts for one menstrual cycle.

She should not take another dose. She should not rely on an ECP as a form of birth control.
It is intended for emergency situations only.

Do Not Take another dose.

Do Not Depend on an ECP as birth control.
An emergency contraceptive is intended to be used in an emergency situation.

Over use will make it less effective in preventing pregnancy.
