Sometimes what is best for one woman is not best for another.  I'm here to support women in whatever circumstance they are in or whatever direction things take them.

No.  This will not work.  You are outside the 72 window in which emergency contraception will work.  Now you must wait to see if your period comes.  If it is late, then take a test.  If that is positive, you then can discuss termination either by the traditional procedure or by pills that a doctor prescribes.  Or you may not be pregnant.  But emergency contraception must be taken within 72 hours of intercourse.  good luck
