Morning after pill?

Question

Hi everyone! I wanted to ask you all about the morning after pill, I have never needed it because I always took protections with my boyfriend. Yet I want to know more: have you tried it? When do you decide to take it? Just to be aware and know when to get it if I need! Thank you all!!!

Answer

The morning after pill prevents you from ovulating or prevents a fertilized egg from implanting. It can be taken multiple times but if I remember correctly, because less effective if taken often in a relatively short period of time. It will mess up your cycle for a month or two, can cause some nausea and other minor side effects but it is pretty harmless otherwise. It's a great thing for those inevitable "uh-oh" moments when you realize you may not have been as careful as usual but it is certainly not meant to be a regular form of bc.

Answer

The morning after pill is basically a higher dose of what normal birth control pills contain. For them to be most effective you have to take them within 72 hours after unprotected sex. The sooner the better. They prevent the sperm from fertilizing the egg so that you do not get pregnant. Don't rely on them be proactive. They are intended for just in case. You should talk to your doctor first though. :)
