Common Questions and Answers about Levonorgestrel effects

Avatar f tn It's highly likely the emergency contraceptive pill you took is making her bleed, and will likely cause intermittent bleeding for the next month or so - and could delay her usual period at least for one month. Additionally, if you aren't having penetrative sex, there is no way she'll get pregnant. A few sperm deposited at the outside opening of her vagina won't be able to swim all the way up to an egg, without seminal fluid to neutralize the Ph.
Avatar n tn I have been researching the cardiovascular effects of birth control and saw that it can raise c-reactive protein levels. How clinically significant is this? I know crp is a measure of inflammation in the body. So is increasing it's level going to actually cause inflammation? Or is it simply upregulated, and if so what are the consequences of that? I recently switched for alesse which has levonorgestrel. I read this progestin has the worst effect on cholesterol levels.
2104296 tn?1334841551 I friend of mine is on this birth control. She is having some huge side effects. I am trying to find more information about this birth control for her. I have lots of questions and looking for some answers. If anyone has used this birth control and has had problems with it. Please contact me so I can compare notes. Thanks so much!
Avatar m tn so early monday morning , my boyfriend and i were having sex and our condom broke . i have levonorgestrel at my disposal , but i haven't used it as a regular birth control . we had a similar situation a few months ago , and i used 4 pills of levonorgestrel immediately , & then 4 more in 12 hours following the first dosage , as recommended by a university healthcare website . everything worked out fine , & i felt very mild abdominal pain .
Avatar f tn Also, I took a pill after maybe around 14 hours after? I took the Levonorgestrel 3x/day and I am on my 3rd day taking it so I already consumed 9 tabs. Can I still get pregnant? I am so anxious and paranoid because I am still in the university and just about to reach my dreams. I am also too young to conceived and I was raised in a society which pre-marital sex is not honored. I am so shameful about myself to be honest.
Avatar n tn I'm currently on birth control pills (Ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel) and i'm overweight so i'm planning on taking Hydroxycut Hardcore Next Gen. Will Hydroxycut affect the effectiveness of my bcp?
Avatar m tn An hour later, I took the 72-hour emergency contraceptive levonorgestrel, two tablets of 0.75 mg. Is my girlfriend more likely to get pregnant? Sorry, my English is not very good.
Avatar m tn Each tablet contains 0.75mg Levonorgestrel. and told me not to worry nothing will happen. but i am afraid please tell me if there is any chances of getting pregnant let me precise the whole thing 1- we were enjoying dry humping. (no intercourse and dry humping with full clothes on) he was on top 2- i am a virgin girl, never had sex before. not even this time, it was just dry humping. 3- my last periods were ended on 4th Feb. they were in between 29 jan to 4 feb.
874116 tn?1240368959 The name is Ipill with the levonorgestrel hormone. I used it once mid cycle after my period last month and got pregnant. I really want to know if teh hormone can cause any potential harm to the baby. I am in a fix and would really appreciate some advice....
Avatar n tn I do not know whether she or I had any precum on our hands from my organ but just to be sure and safe 1.5mg Levonorgestrel (Plan B or Unwanted 72) was taken about 12 hours later (around 10.45am on 24th September 2011). Both of us are not sure whether we had precum. I touched only the outer side of outer lip and nowhere near the opening of her vagina. She covered it two times during the occasion with her hands to stop me.
Avatar f tn Plan B® One-Step is composed of a progestin-only (levonorgestrel) tablet. Levonorgestrel is well-trusted and has been commonly used in many birth control pills for over 35 years. In a clinical trial, women tolerated Plan B® One-Step well; 14% experienced nausea and 1% experienced vomiting.5 Plan B® One-Step is safe and well-tolerated. Some women may experience mild side effects, similar to those of regular birth control pills.
Avatar f tn 2-3 hours after that, he rubbed his penis on my v and when it got wet I immediately wiped and washed it with water. I was only able to take levonorgestrel 24-25 hours after that happened. He told me that he doesn't release anything before and after he ejacs. Are the chances of getting pregnant is low, medium or high?
Avatar f tn I have taken plan B levonorgestrel 3 weeks ago. I had a heavy bleeding 3 days after I took it and it lasted only 2 days. My last period started on 18 february so in my natural cycle I would have my period today again 19 march. I don´t feel the sympthoms of getting my period soon so i guess it´s delayed due to plan B. Did my cycle started again on 1 march, when I had my bleeding for 2 days?
Avatar m tn she took an I-pill which is an emergency contraceptive pill containing 1.5mg of Levonorgestrel. her last period was on the 11th of october and the one before that was on the 9th of september. but she experienced some midcycle breakthrough bleeding this month on the 30th. she is also experiencing sore breasts. what does this mean in the context of pregnancy and its chances and also in the context of side effects on her body. is everything ok?
Avatar n tn While I understand that there is always a risk of DVT, depression or stroke when taking contraceptive pills, I was thinking, there are other brand of pills which contains more or less the same hormones ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel. So should I be concerned? I have been on other brand of pills in the past which contained ethinylestradiol and norethisterone and I was fine with it.
Avatar n tn Since this original post we have visited a doctor and my wife has taken the ECP levonorgestrel. She took the first pill ~32hrs after the event and a second pill about 12hrs later as per doctor's instruction. We were unable to visit a doctor prior to this late hour due to the holiday season (Chinese New Year) over here resulting in clinics being closed. Unfortunately ECPs are not available as an over the counter drug at pharmacies.
Avatar f tn This is also effective if you are in doubt whether you have used your regular contraceptives correctly or not. Plan-B or Levonorgestrel is a very widely used oral birth control medication and it comes under the classification of progestine. you can buy from chemist shop or online at Drugsdropship24.
Avatar f tn I went to a Rite Aid and took the emergency contraception ,My Way (levonorgestrel) 20 min. afterwards and I started taking Junel Fe on Wednesday August 31, the same day my period ended. I'm trying to schedule an appointment with my obgyn, because the only thing I've felt out of the ordinary is bloating since Sun to the point where I need to sit every time I stand, being out of breath sometimes or can barely eat for a day.

Avatar f tn My girlfriend and i had unprotected sex and we bought this pills Levonorgestrel Tablets 0.75mg. She took one pill about an hour after intercourse but she did not take the second one. On the paper it said one pill should be taken 12 hours after taking the first one. Now i am worried can the one pill work?
Avatar m tn a few hours later i took levonorgestrel pills. i had my first day of period on February 1. yesterday, i noticed some brown bleeding (better to say spotting). i took a urine pregnancy test last night which came negative. can i be pregnant?
Avatar n tn On July 21 my and my boyfriend had sex the condom broke we dont know if he pre-cummed, and are pretty sure he didnt ejaculate, 19 hours later I took Plan B (Levonorgestrel). I took the next pill on time. These five days I had just had some stomach pains and nausea nothing to serious but I have also have a cold at the same time so I am unsure what symptoms are from what. Anyways, the 5th day at night drops of blood were coming out and still are, I am really worried. Is everything okay?
Avatar f tn you should be perfectly fine providing you've been taking your pill correctly as you say you have been :) the "dosage" of pills isn't anything to worry about, they all work in the same way - preventing ovulation, thinning the womb lining to make it harder for an embryo to attach, and thickening the mucus so sperm can't get past the cervix as easily. it seems to me that levora isn't a "low dose" - it's simply that it contains 0.
Avatar f tn Hi so on the 7th of July my boyfriend came on his stomach but then after wiping if off with his hands he touched me down there, the next day on the 8th I took the morning after pill just incase ( levonorgestrel-1 GH) and that was within the first 24 hours.
Avatar n tn For the first month it was OK, no side effects other then some loss of libido. After talking with doc about it he changed it to another one with levonorgestrel instead of dienogest. After 2 days of taking it I started experiencing extreme thirst, anxiety, palpitations, minor blood sugar rise and hard to sleep (since thirst was waking me up several times). I endured it for 1 week and went to my gynecologist to talk about it.
