You're using regular birth control pills in a higher dose to replace an emergency contraception? Honestly that doesn't sound safe at all! Vomiting for 9 hours is a big red flag and I think you should see a dr, especially if you're still doing this. Definitely don't take any more pills because they could seriously harm your body.
He is pretty sure that he did not ejaculate, but i want to take an emergency contraceptive pill( such as i-pill) just as a precaution. What i really need to know is whether it can cause any problems with my periods later on. i had my last period from january 22,2009. also, does it have too much of side-effects? i have a family history of PCOS, though i haven't been diagnosed with it.
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.
in the morning, i took emergency contraception (prostinor 2) last night, while having sex wiv him, the condom broke and he came in me...Do i need to take prostinor again or is the one i took yesterday ok?
I think Plan B posts that there is a 1 in 8 chance of it not working. It's not meant to be used as birth control, it's meant to be used as emergency contraception. When you say "condoms aren't on the table," do you mean this has already happened and you had no condoms? If this hasn't happened yet, condoms are more reliable than Plan B, and a lot more healthy for you.
I am on Trinessa birth control pills. I was wondering if I could use my birth control pills to start my period about a week early, only because my boy friend is coming home from the military the week that I am supposed to start my period and I don't really want this to happen. Any suggestions?
anyways, we went to cvs and bought Next Choice one pill emergency contraception an hour after sex. She used the EC around 8:45pm the same night, march 11. She told me that she was 2 weeks late on her Depo shot, which is why I recommended the EC an hour or little after sex. She also said she is usually on a 28 day cycle, rarely early, and always on time. So, what are the chances of her getting pregnant in the future? I have been worrying all day.
Emergency Contraception
In cases of unprotected sex, women can take emergency contraception to prevent pregnancy. Emergency contraception is not a substitute for regular contraceptive methods and it is not the same as the abortion pill. In 2009, the FDA made several changes to the emergency contraceptive pill Plan B:
The original Plan B, which is taken as two levonogesterol pills, is now also available in a generic form called Next Choice.
You gave her plan B or emergency contraception? I pill, right? Well, if it was taken within 72 hours, she should be good. Lunch doesn't matter so much as getting it in before the 72 hour window is over. buy some condoms! Emergency contraception messes up a woman's period.
sometimes contraceptive pills can cause bleeding. they say so right in the side effects as well as sometimes emergency contraception can change the length of a monthly menstrual cycle, making the next period come as much as a week earlier or a week later than usual. if her period was late than you should worry but any bleeding heavier than spotting is a sure sign that she is not pregnant.
Yes, Trinessa is a birth control pill. It has helped as far as not having any more cysts rupture, but I still have frequent pain and now am getting severe migraines. I will continue taking the pill, though, because I would rather put up with the migraines than the rupturing of cysts. My mom had severe endometriosis a few years ago and ended up having a hysterectomy to take care of it (she was only 38 or so at the time of her hysterectomy).
But I took the pill as soon as I got home and took the next pill the next day at my regular time. I am really paranoid why my period hasn't started yet. I called my doctor and his assistant said I should have started Tuesday or Wednesday. She said to give it til Friday and if I still haven't started, to take a preg. test. But I really don't know how I could be preg. though. We were never unprotected and I didn't skip any pills. Am I just overreacting?
Sorry, my mistake! My fellow Community Leader reminds that the number of hours after sex for the most effective use of emergency contraception is 72 hours, not 48 hours.
Here is the correct information:
"If you feel you need to take emergency contraception, take it as soon as you can after the unprotected sex. It's most effective within 72 hours. It can be taken up to five days after intercourse, but by the third, fourth or fifth day the rate of effectiveness is reduced.
It happens because of the hormones in a pregnancy so for most women, it starts 6 to 7 weeks after conception, not when your period is due. You are likely late because you used emergency contraception/pills. Those are a huge dose of hormones which is how they work but also after that, the body deals with the hormones. They can make you irregular with your cycle for 2 to 3 months after taking them.
HI,
The unprotected sex was around mid-cycle, which is the time of ovulation and at this time the risk of pregnancy is highest. However as you have taken emergency contraception, the risk is reduced. The symptoms you are having can also be the side effects of the drug. Hence taking of antacids may help. If however the periods do not come on time then a home pregnancy test can be taken.
The answer is based on information provided.
Nordette is a regular birth control pill but can be used as an emergency contraception if taken by 4pills then 4 pills after a 12 hour period.
My girlfriend doesn't use birth control pills and this is the only time she used it. And she did it twice this month only.
Though my bleeding is not the kind of bleeding I usually get from my period. Is it also because of the emergency contraception?
on a safer side i took emergency contraception...now after 5 days i am bleeding which is darker(brownish)in colour but it is going on since yesterday...m confused on everythng ...
Here's the thing, taking emergency contraception so many times in such a short amount of time will absolutely affect your period schedule. It's not meant to be used that often. For your own health and piece of mind you need to get on the regular birth control pill and take as directed or some other form of protection if you're going to be having so much unprotected sex.
While emergency contraception is most effective within a 72 hour window and the sooner you take it, the higher the efficacy rate, I get 3 packs of emergency contraception (Next Choice, I have both single dose and two dose) per month when I fill my birth control. I'm told by my gynecologist and it's on my prescription (though you no longer need a prescription, I only have mine as a prescription because I get it at no cost then) to take within 120 hours of unprotected sex.
hello everyone my cousin recomended me ortho tri cyclen as birth control mostly because it worked so goog for her... Before that I was using mirena ... And i had it removed due to very bad side effects... So I asked for ortho but they gave me trinessa a generic form of ortho ...
Now from all the research I've been doing and the side effects I've had so far with it makes me belive that I should be using the name brand...
