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 m tn He said he never come but not so sure..I took levonorgestrel (EC) on the 27 day of April...What the chance of becoming pregnant..My ovulation calendar states that on 29th my ovulation day. I'm not yet ready to it co'z my second child is turning 2yrs old..Any advise from you guys would be a big help..Thank you..
Avatar n tn From what you described, it's very unlikely she is pregnant.. there needs to be penetration for their to be a pregnancy %99.9 of the time. Also, if she took plan B that reduces and small risk there was even smaller..
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 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 f tn Plan B is a high dose of levonorgestrel, which is one of the synthetic progestins available in birth control pills. The "period" you get on the pill is actually bleeding caused by the withdrawal of the hormones during the inactive pill week, and not a true period you would get if you were ovulating normally. Plan B is known to cause menstrual irregularities after taking it, and my guess is that you're having withdrawal bleeding after that dose of hormones. Keep using condoms.
Avatar f tn Hello! I will just ask if I can get pregnant knowing that we have a coitus relationship a day after my ovulation day (based on my period tracker). He didn't used protection that time but one thing is I am sure of. He didn't ejaculated his sperms inside mine. I don't know if his precum is inside. Maybe yes or I don't know because I remember that I wiped his with my hand before he put it inside. But I am not sure of it because there would be some still inside of his right?
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 I highly doubt you are pregnant seeming you only had your period a week ago. Maybe it is a side effect to the pill you took or taking. Call you Dr and go get checked. Good luck Hun and keep us posted please.
Avatar f tn I checked my period cycle and it says I ovulated a week before this incident occurred and apparently ovum disintegrate after about 24 hours of not being fertilized. I took Plan B Levonorgestrel 30 hours after the incident occurred but ive been stressing like crazy. I started taking vitamin C supplements and turmeric because I heard it induces a period and I'm going to use some warm compresses on my stomach as well to induce it if possible.
Avatar n tn People as young as 23 have died and had stroke. 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 f tn Bleeding is pretty normal with emergency contraception pills. They are a dose of hormones, and can mess up your cycle. They are pretty effective when taken in 72 hours of unprotected sex. Of course they are not 100% so you should still test in a few weeks but I wouldn't worry that much about it. I have taken them several times over the years and they always worked. They are not abortion pills! They prevent a pregnancy but do not cause an abortion when taken correctly.

Avatar f tn Sharma please do your research. Levonorgestrel is a cause of hair loss in women. Every single birth control that contains high androgen index progestins can cause hair loss. Stop telling women Plan B and birth control pills don’t cause hair loss. They do. The more doctors that understand this - the less of a problem women will have as they can make an informed choice. Please do your research. A simple search on any big BCP air IUD containing high androgen index progestins will show you this.
Avatar m tn Today I was googling about the subject and found out that there is another type of pill that has an higher success rate (EllaONe - 30mg ulipristal acetate). Can I still take this one? Will it reduce my chances of getting pregnant? Thank you!
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.
Avatar n tn Anyways, the 5th day at night drops of blood were coming out and still are, I am really worried. Is everything okay? Also I dont get my period for quite a while it ended a few days before we had sex and I have a 32-35 day cycle.
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 m tn should she take one and then another twelve hours later, or two at once....the pharmacist said both, but most of what is online says 1 then another 12 hrs later we are in thailand and she is too embarassed to go to a doctor herself...please help...
Avatar n tn i need to take morning after pills (emergency contraceptives) since i hav had unprotectd sex abt 24 hours ago. In my reagion a birth control pill is available with a composition of Ethinyloestradiol:0.03mg, Levonorgestrel:0.15mg. i read on the internet that a high dosage of birth control pills acts as a morning after pill but i dont know what excatly is a high dosage. please guide me on this.
Avatar n tn pill (that contains 50 microg of ethinyl estradiol and .5 mg of Levonorgestrel) roughly 24 hours after the intercourse and another 24 hours later 12 hours third one and fourth one 24 hours after that. it's been a week now and she hasn't had her period yet, but she's experiencing lower abdominal pain and tiredness (which are said to be the symptoms of the pills) what are her chances of being pregnant?
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 Agree with ppowb. Emergency contraceptive though is hardly worth the time if you aren't going to take it the right way. If she is late, take a pregnancy test. She likely isn't but stranger things have happened. The one pill may have created enough of a disturbance in her hormones to prevent conception from happening. Let's hope!
