Morning after pill

Use

"It is essential that the morning-after pill is available promptly if a female feels there is a pregnancy risk, but it is also very important that it continues to be seen as an emergency measure rather than an alternative to using contraception as a matter of routine."
The morning-after pill is a hormone-based preparation (it can contain oestrogens, oestrogen/progestogens or only progestogens) which, within and no later than 72 hours after a presumably fertile act of sexual intercourse, has a predominantly "anti-implantation" function.
Another very important use of the morning after pill is after sexual assault.
The morning-after pill is made available without a prescription.
The morning-after pill contains high doses of the hormones found in regular oral contraceptive pills which, when taken after unprotected intercourse may prevent pregnancy from occurring.
There are three ways by which emergency contraceptive pills may work: by preventing ovulation, by prevention sperm from reaching the egg and by preventing implantation.
