Even in the modern world we live in today and with the wide variety of contraceptives available, it is still estimated that around 50% of all pregnancies are unplanned or unintended. Avoiding an unwanted pregnancy requires a lot of planning, and health professionals do as much as they can to help men and women better understand contraception.

Yet accidents occasionally happen where a man and woman have unprotected sexual intercourse and this is usually where the famous emergency contraceptive, or 'morning-after pill' is taken. Unlike normal birth control (or the pill as people refer to it) to prevent pregnancy, the so-called morning-after pill such as Levonelle, works only if taken by a woman as soon as possible after having unprotected sex.

It contains a synthetic hormone-like substance called levonorgestrel and is believed to prevent around 84% of expected pregnancies when taken within 72 hours of having unprotected sex. It is also usually effective up to five days after unprotected sex. You can buy Levonelle from any online pharmacy and therefore do not need a doctor's prescription.

The most common side effect of Levonelle in rare cases is nausea, but otherwise, it is relatively safe. You should see your period or cycle within three to four weeks after the initial treatment, but if pregnancy does occur, it is recommended that you see a doctor immediately, as the high dose of hormones could have a detrimental effect on the foetus.

It is very important to understand that Levonelle is not an effective birth control pill that can be taken every day or frequently. When you buy Lenovelle, you will also find it more expensive than normal birth control pills. Also, after you have had unprotected sex, it is recommended that you visit your doctor or local medical clinic as soon as possible, to rule out the possibility of exposure to sexually transmitted diseases.

Prevention is always better than a cure and if you feel too embarrassed to visit a doctor or a clinic, feel free to discuss it with an online pharmacist, who will handle your discussion with the utmost respect and discretion. You can schedule an online appointment to discuss any symptoms you may have, and based on that information, the pharmacist will prescribe the right treatment.

Levonelle is a single administration pill and is intended to be used as an emergency control if you have had sex without using any contraceptives, or if you believe that your birth control has failed you, or if you have missed too many birth control pills, or when your fertile days miscalculated.

It is easy to buy Levonelle and each package comes with a set of directions. Once you have read the instructions or discussed it with your online pharmacist, you can take the one pill – the sooner, the better. However, if you become so nauseous that you start vomiting, it is advisable to contact your doctor, as the emergency pill may no longer be effective in preventing pregnancy.

Levonelle is sometimes confused with an abortion pill, and it is extremely important to understand that this pill will not produce an abortion! It also offers no additional pregnancy protection and is intended for use in women over the age of 17.

Because the Levonelle morning-after pill’s effectiveness is based on how soon you take it, it may be a good idea to contact your online pharmacy in advance to make sure they have the product in stock and how fast the delivery will take to reach you. reach. You can save even more time if you buy Levonelle ahead of time so you can get it handy as soon as you need it.

The only way to know for certain that the morning-after pill has successfully prevented you from falling pregnant is if your period starts with the expected time or within seven days of when you expected it to start. If your period is more than a week late, you may be pregnant. If you suspect this is the case, you can take a home pregnancy test, which you can also buy online, to confirm a pregnancy or to follow up with your doctor.

The morning after pill is much more likely to work if taken in the first 24 hours after unprotected sex, and becomes less effective as time passes.

”The problem here is that there are no official statistics for exactly how many women this has happened to. Part of the reason is that it’s almost impossible to determine if they are skewed by women who have taken a morning after pill but would not have got pregnant otherwise. Samuelle Yohou, associate medical manager at HRA Pharma, says that "not everyone who has unprotected sex will fall pregnant but statistically 55 in 1,000 will".

 According to Samuelle, taking ellaOne reduces this number to nine in 1,000.But this statistic is cast into doubt by the Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Health (FSRH) guidelines. They say: "If 1% of all women receiving a particular method of emergency contraception (EC) within 72 hours of unprotected sexual intercourse (UPSI) at any time in the cycle become pregnant, the overall pregnancy rate is quoted as 1%. However, for a significant proportion of the women included in the study, UPSI would not have occurred during the fertile period and they would not have become pregnant in any case."

Roughly translated, this means that if a woman has already begun to ovulate when she has unprotected sex, no morning after pill will work because an egg has already been released. Dr Jane Dickson, vice president of the FSRH explains why this is: "The main mechanism of action of oral emergency contraception is to postpone ovulation so that sperm in the genital tract will be dead when ovulation occurs [...] but it is thought to have no action once ovulation has already occurred."

Sat down to have dinner with my housemates and no idea how, but we started talking about the morning after pill. Most of them are fairly clued up but one just started coming out with the most ignorant shit I've ever heard in my life. 

"It causes you to have a miscarriage"

Errr WHAT? It's called EMERGENCY CONTRACEPTION for a reason - it STOPS you from getting pregnant. If you're already pregnant it won't make a damned bit of difference. 

"Yeah you can only take it like 3 times in your life, or it starts to be less effective" 

Umm well I have taken it 3 times already and I'm only 21. I have always read every single word of the leaflet inside and it has never ever said anything like that and nor have the GPs or pharmacists who have given it to me. It's not wise to use it several times in a year and definitely not back to back but seeing as it's effectively just a super high dosage of normal birth control the "3 times" thing is BULLSHIT.

You can experience the side effects of emergency contraception regardless of whether or not you were actually pregnant.

About 10% of women who take emergency contraception pills experience nausea/vomiting, headaches, back aches, breast aches or pain in the lower abdomen. It also often causes irregular bleeding and alters your periods for a while, because most work by disrupting the hormonal cycle and altering the environment of the uterus (the lining becomes disturbed so an embryo can't implant).
