its a last minute emergency thing. i don't know too much about it, but i know it is definatly not recomended as a contraceptive.
like i said i don't know too much definate stuff about it, but i think its 60% or so effective.

use a condom, or if your steady with a girl make sure she's on the pill, best way to be safe.

I am no doctor, but from what I read/heard the "morning after pill" is basically just a very strong dose of the same hormones used in normal over the counter birth control pills. It also is said to have similar side effects to those pills.

As far as effectiveness....the FDA has approved it for use in the US, which means it should do as advertised relatively reliably. But nothing in life is 100% effective....with the possible exception of standing directly below a nuclear bomb, in which case there is a 100% probability that you will die a quick death.

One must remember that the morning after pill is not to be confused with the abortion pill Ru-486 which works in a different fashion and must be administered by a pysician.

Hope this helps....

true. the "morning after" pill is just a very strong dose of hormones... effective only in 70% of the cases, i think - that's what i heard. really, a last resort - when your condom breaks, for example.

And apparently it can only be obtained with a perscription.

Someone no to long ago posted a link to a website that explains everything. I think it was http://www.afraidtoask.com (or some variation of that). I read up on "the morning after pill" there.

EMERGENCY CONTRACEPTION (THE "MORNING AFTER" PILL)
History:
Originally developed in the 1960s as treatment for rape victims, this method has been improved upon over time and continues to have active research. Though it has no effect on preventing STDs / STIs, it is a second chance to avoid an unintended pregnancy. (The chance of getting pregnant after intercourse is calculated to be between 2% and 30%.) Emergency contraception methods can use by women to prevent pregnancy after intercourse in the case of unused contraception (e.g., sexual assault, forgot to use contraception) or contraception failure (e.g., condom breakage, IUD expulsion, etc). Emergency contraception methods are not as effective as the contraceptive methods listed previously; the true effectiveness is unknown but is estimated to be above 80% if used within 72 hours from intercourse. Because of side effects (nausea, vomiting, heavy periods, breast tenderness) and lower effectiveness, emergency contraception should not be used as the primary means of contraception.

How it works:
Emergency contraception pills are thought to work through a number of effects mostly by preventing fertilization through disrupting ovulation or interfering with the movement of sperm towards the egg. Depending on what sort of emergency contraception is used, other possible mechanisms include interfering with the corpus luteum or preventing implantation (i.e., they do not seem to cause abortions, rather they prevent fertilization in the first place).

How to Get it:
Most current birth control pills can be used for emergency contraception though only the Preven emergency contraception pill has been approved in the US for use. Call or visit your doctor, health care clinic, or emergency room to learn how to take the medicine or get it prescribed. Click here for a list of local clinics, or call 1-888-NOT-2-LATE for information about method options and provider referral.

Emergency Contraceptive Pills (most commonly used): This is a regimen of combined estrogen-progesterone oral contraceptive pills taken within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse. It may cause significant nausea and vomiting.

Progestin-only minipills can also be used; they work through a similar mechanism as OCPs and may be more effective than the estrogen + progesterone combinations

Copper IUD insertion is a less common method, but works within 5 days of intercourse and may be 98% effective. Copper ions act to prevent fertilization.

this is a good response. I have taken it before. it's best if it can be avoided b/c it's liek having teh flu for about a day..puking and whatnot. but i would go to a dr if you/she thinks she needs it. sometimes they will tell you not to take it, depnding on whether they can figure out what point in her cycle you are at (is if you had sex a day after she finished menstruating they will tell you not to worry about it). also, it is effective for upto 72 hrs after the 'incident'

The thing is they've proven now that women can ovulate more than once per ~28 day cycle, so it's something you/she should pop anyways.

in uk you can get it over pharmacy counters, but it'll cost you bout £40.
I've taken it once, not that bad for me, just brings you on early no other side effects. its an easy thing to do, but dumb to get in that situation in the frist place.


Posted by swisstoni on Aug-24-2003 17:01:

Yer, what Kate said. It ain't all that bad with side effects considering what it alleviates. but never rely on it.


Posted by Orbax on Aug-24-2003 17:06:

maybe hes talking about hangover pill?


Posted by daffodil on Aug-25-2003 04:45:

morning after pill is most effective taken ASAP. it's effective for up to 72 hours following unprotected sex, but it's most effective taken w/in 12 hours.

it works by preventing implantation -- it IS NOT an abortion pill. it's pretty much an excessive hormone dose, the equivalent of taking two high-dose birth control pills at once, then another twelve hours later.

it can make you sick and feel pretty brutal, but if you're trying to avoid pregnancy, it's cheaper and less unpleasant than abortion. it's not a good method of birth control, so use condoms or other contraception.

essentially, morning after pill is more expensive and more unpleasant than reliable, regular contraception, so be smart.

Well.....24 hours have passed since the original post....I hope the proverbial rabbit is saved within the next 48 hours or the boy's lifesytle is gonna change real fast

There's more effective birth control methods then the pill. Eg, wait 3 months, then administer a flurry of kicks to your loved one's stomach. Or just punch her in the ****.

Swamper does that mean you banned Mquirk? Or am I mental and totally missed what that was supposed to mean?

P.S. Mquirk, you have very distasteful humor.

Nice!! Thanks Del.

Anyways, my friend had to use this method once. And it was just a double dose of the same pill that I was on at the time and another double dose 12 hours later. But she did get sick after. Throwing up and such, but she was fine after two days. Lets just say she never had to use it again.
