The Emergency Contraception (EC) is commonly known as the “Morning After Pill“.
Emergency Contraception (often known as the Morning After Pill) greatly reduces the chance of pregnancy if taken shortly after unprotected sex. EC is about 85-99% effective. There are many brands, please read the directions, some can be taken as late as 5 days after sex and some must be taken within the first 24 hours.
The morning after pill will not prevent pregnancy for any unprotected sex you may have after taking the pills. It will not stop a pregnancy already implanted in your uterus.
You should have a normal period within 3 weeks. If you do not, you should return to our office for a pregnancy test.
Emergency contraception is SAFE — millions of people have used different kinds of emergency contraceptives for 30+ years. There have been no reports of serious complications.
Taking the morning after pill more than once won’t hurt you.
