If your girlfriend hasn't been on the Birth Control pill for the last seven days, taking one after sex won't help. At that point, your girlfriend can only take the morning after pill or emergency contraception pill.
If she's been on the birth control pill and wants to know when she can stop, take them for at least the next five days.
