If you’re worried about pregnancy after unprotected sex, the morning-after or emergency contraceptive pill is available in pharmacies across the country. The emergency pill can be taken up to 120 hours after sex. It comes in two doses and the second dose must be taken 12 hours after the first dose. Emergency contraception often contains estrogen and progestin (levonorgestrel) at higher levels than the regular combined contraceptive pill. It reduces the risk of pregnancy by 75%. The sooner you take it after unprotected sex, the more effective it is.
There are many different brands of emergency contraceptives including Ella, AfterPill, My Way and Option 2. The cost ranges from $35 to $60 depending on the brand.
You can also take a higher dose of a combined oral contraceptive instead. Although regular contraceptive pills aren’t marketed for emergency use, they have been shown to be just as effective. As with the emergency pill, you must take the first dose within 120 hours after unprotected sex and a second dose 12 hours thereafter.
Although regular birth control pills are safe to use in emergency situations and no major side effects have been reported, here are a couple of things you need to know:
