Hello thanks for the video, just a little frightened, 4 days post taking the pill and no period. I had a cycle Jan 29- Feb 4. In the past, years ago, the pill worked right away.
My gf just took it right away when she went back home like after 3 hrs do u think it will work for her cuz we fucked while we drunk and I mistakenly released my sperm without pulling out ? Help pls 😢❤
I get loads of questions about this! It’s really interesting how many ladies interpret one thing or the other as a sign the pill has worked! Thanks for watching 😀
Thanks for subbing👏🏾! You're welcome, and I'm pleased to be helpful. Please stick around for more, and keep an eye on my community posts where you can tell me what other videos you'll like to see.

I have unprotected sex just after 2days of finishing my periods😢 I took a morning after pill 72 hours but I took it late with 6 hours.. after 3 days of taking it I am having lower abdominal cramps mostly in the morning….. now I am afraid that I might be pregnant and if it so what can I use without dr prescription to terminate it
Pregnancy risk is lower during or just after the period. You also took the pill within 6 hours which is recommended. The copper coil could work if you are within 5 days after having sex.
@@AskAwayHealthwhat if u have sex, 5 days after the period? I had sex around 4 times on a day and took morning after pill within 12 hrs of intercourse.. and I've never used any birth control pills in my life.. and we did it again after few hrs 😢. what do i do?
Good evening, doc. I badly need your answer regarding my concern. ☹️ Will eating certain foods like sour foods lessen the effectiveness of the emergency pill? Or are there foods I have to avoid while taking the pill?
Hi, Foods don't affect how the emergency pills or their effectiveness. However, if you vomit within 2 hours after taking the pill, you need to take the dose again.
@@AskAwayHealth Thank you thank you so much, Dr. Sylvia for giving me an answer to that. 🥺❤️ We also commend you, doc, for sharing a very informative and well explained video from you. This really helps a lot. Thank you so much.

Hi, while some studies show paw paw seeds can have an effect on the cycle and fertility, we don't yet have the data on things like: how they work, what quantity to use, or any related side effects etc. So, we do not recommend it as an emergency birth control option.
Its a small chance that it will work since its most effective taken before ovulation. Still, better than nothing - please ask her to do a PT 3 weeks after sex. (If still within 5 days from ovulation/sex, the Copper coil is the best option). Thanks
Thank you so much doctor! What if there’s an instance where the person had unprotected sex during ovulation? Would the morning after pill still be effective?
The morning-after pill is most effective when taken before ovulation. The chances of being effective after ovulation are low. However, in such an instance, the MAP should still be used (sometimes the ovulation may not have happened yet); or get a Copper IUD/coil fitted within 5 days of sex.
I had intercourse and the condom broke ( he didn’t finish ). So we went to the pharmacy and took the MAP after 1h and a half. But then I checked the app and it said that I am ovulating during that time. Would the pill still work ? Thank you 😊
Madam , if I had unprotected sex on my last day of luteal phase (according to my period tracker app), and I haven taken Emergency Contraceptive Pill within 25 hours , will it work for me? please let me know.
One more thing I would like to add..if you take emergency contraceptive pill while your ovulation has just occurred and you have had an unprotected intercourse then you can get pregnant..And chances are that it can be an ectopic pregnancy..There are doctors who wouldn't check this second possibility so please do proper tests to check that out or you can get into a serious life threatening situation..Telling from personal experience...And also try to avoid progesterone only birth control pills..
Hi - there’s no benefit from taking the pill outside the recommended dose. I think this video can help explain - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wcuf2Y7uvfw.html Thanks
Hello mam my periods date is 17 and I took unwanted 72 on 24th and after 5 days I got bleeding for two days and now I'm getting some discharge?? Is it safe or any chances of pregnancy Mam pls reply 🥺

The issue now is that I haven't had my Next monthly menstruation after the last one which was after the Postinor 2 pills. What could be the cause ma

Let me know if I have a problem or is it normal?
Helo dr i just wanna know that i took pills even after i dont know whether the sperm entered or not so is it safe Or after taking pills will i become imfertile will it affect to future pragnancy?
You explain so well Doctor. Am grateful having gained a little knowledge about that, thanks so much.. I hope am safe coz after i took the pills i had my periods 5 days earlier than usual. I have 25 days cycle. But the next period is late by 4 days now and haven't menstruated again. Doctor kindly advise me. Could i be pregnant?
Hi! I really need your advice! I haven’t been keeping track of my period but it’s been pretty consistent the past few months I can say. I had sex exactly 2 weeks after the start of my last period. Is it unlikely that it’ll work? I took a plan b 5 hours after unprotected sex. 3 days after I feel cramping and dull aches. Hope this doesn’t mean I’m pregnant 😭
Hi, the pill works after ovulation. Why should you still get it? You should get it because no one can accurately say when they are ovulating (except with blood tests, scans etc). The menstrual cycle apps or calendar give you estimates, only - even with a regular cycle. So you should get the pill if you’re concerned about an unplanned pregnancy because it can provide good protection if you’ve not ovulated, but realise it may not work - if you’ve already ovulated. The only method (currently) which will work after ovulation is the copper coil that you can use within 5 days of sex, or ovulation.
If you have a regular cycle, that is, your period comes around the same time every month, ovulation is, on average, about 14 days before the next period, and 14 days after the last period.
I had it on my fertile period three days latter I took the pill late by 2hrs, I started having cramps even before I took the pill and have been having until now I have taken a test two times it comes out negative. Could it be pregnancy or stress

My cycle was Nov14-20 I had unprotected sex on the 20th now on Nov 25 I’m noticing pink spotting and 26 it’s alittle red. I took the emergency conceptive take action with in 24 hrs. On Nov 20th. So I guess I wait for 2 weeks to see if get my period for Dec…..
Hi, you do a pregnancy test 2/3 weeks after sex, as we can't tell when your next period arrives after the pill. It may be bang on schedule. The risk of pregnancy is naturally lower just after the period but it's sensible to use the pill. The spotting may be the effect of the pill on your womb lining since the period just ended. And yes, the pregnancy test in 2 weeks is the way forward, while you keep track of your bleeding and dates.
You can use a regular contraceptive pill; or use the morning after pill. The regular pill is more effective. Please speak to your health provider or request more details from us here - askawayhealth.org/remembering-queen-elizabeth-ii/

I had my period on the October 27 and then seen my bf without protected on the Nov12th… and I took the morning after pill after 1 hour and the next day I took another one… is there a chance I might be pregnant… as for right now I nausea, abdominal cramping, headache, breast tenderness, menstrual pain, and back pain ?
Hi Angel, without knowing your menstrual pattern, we can’t really be too specific. Going by the date, you may have been in the fertile window when you had sex. Taking the pill as soon as possible is excellent - as long as you had not already ovulated. You can’t really on those signs like painful boobs or cramping to assume pregnancy. It’s also a little too early for you to start getting symptoms as today is only the 17th November. You need to wait 2-3 weeks after Sex and do a test - there’s really no other way you can be sure till around that time. Please watch this video for more explanation on the best time to take the pill - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wcuf2Y7uvfw.html Cheers!
I had unprotected sex when I was still in my period in that same day l took a pill then after 6days again l saw blood like period again what is the cause or is it the sign to show that am pregnant
She took the emergency pill after about 4 hours. in before months after taking the pill periods took place 3 days earlier.but in this month we had sex in her fertile period and not yet periods occure.in last month's it got 13th.2 weeks before, She got bleed withing about 4 days. Has she pregnant
Hi, it means the emergency pill is most likely to work best if you take it in the immediate 1-2 days before ovulation. After that, it may work but to a lesser extent. Still, better to use it than nothing.
@AskAwayHealth So me an my girlfriend had outercourse (no protection) on the 26th of Feb and she took the morning after pill on the 2nd of March to be safe, is that okay?, we rubbed our genitals but never put it inside. It said that taking the morning after pill within 120 hours is effective, but I wanted to be safe so I let her take it before 120 hours.
I ovulated on Wednesday I had unprotected sex on Thursday by 10pm and I took the postinor 2 On Saturday morning is that any chance that something wil be wrong I took it together with ampiclox

Hi Doc I had unprotected sex on 23rd of July this year and i took the morning pill on the 25th of July later in the afternoon. A week later i got my periods that lasted for 5 days as usual in August. In September i never got them but I've done 3 to 4 pregnancy tests and they are all negative. I feel bloated, i don know whether i should be worried or not. I don't know if its all in my head or what because the plan b delays ur period and that's normal but im wondering what if I don't get them again this month (October) what would that indicate. I've exams coming up, im so worried doc and the internet is messing up my mind

You can take the pill any day after you had unprotected sex. BUT. It is most effective in the days of your fertile window ie 5 days before ovulation and the day of ovulation.

Me and my girlfriend had unprotected sex and I think I finished I’m not sure if any sperm got in her but we took a plan b the Same day 1 hour after sex and this is on the last day of her period am I safe her period is supposed to be in 3 days but she isn’t having any period symptoms and I’m worried
Taking it as soon as possible after sex means you have a better chance that it works, especially if she took it before ovulation. Please remind her to do a pregnancy test 2/3 weeks after sex if her next period is over 1 week late.b
