Emergency Pills

Emergency contraception, also known as the morning-after pill, is a backup birth control method used after unprotected sex or contraceptive failure (e.g., condom breakage). In contrast, birth control pills are taken daily to prevent pregnancy consistently.

Emergency pills should not be used frequently within a cycle, as they may cause hormonal imbalances and increased side effects. For regular pregnancy prevention, daily birth control pills or long-term contraceptive methods are more effective.

The morning-after pill works by delaying ovulation, preventing the release of an egg so sperm cannot fertilize it. However, it does not work if you are already pregnant and does not cause an abortion. Emergency contraception is most effective when taken as soon as possible after unprotected sex.

The side effects of the morning-after pill are similar to those of regular birth control pills. These may include nausea, vomiting, spotting, breast tenderness, dizziness, or temporary menstrual cycle changes. Most side effects are mild and typically go away within a few days without treatment.

Taking multiple Plan B or morning-after pills within the same menstrual cycle can disrupt your period, leading to irregular bleeding, spotting, or cycle changes. While it is not harmful, frequent use is not recommended as a regular birth control method.

No, taking the Plan B pill or other emergency contraception does not affect your fertility, even if you take it multiple times. However, it is not a long-term birth control solution. If you need ongoing contraception, consider options like daily birth control pills, IUDs, or implants.

The only way to find out whether the plan b pill has worked is to wait for your next period. You should take a pregnancy test 3 weeks after your last unprotected sex to make sure that you are not pregnant.

The morning-after pill is most effective when taken within 24 hours of unprotected sex but can work up to 72 hours (3 days). Some pills, like Ella (ulipristal acetate), work for up to 5 days. The sooner you take it, the higher the success rate.
