For Emergency Contraception "I took the generic brand Morning After pill 36 hours after unprotected intercourse during my fertile window. My period tracker said it was 2 days before ovulation, although due to telltale symptoms a couple of days before, I felt it might have even been the day of ovulation. I’m not sure, but either way, not ideal. I’m in my mid-30s, I have 2 kids and don’t want any more. I felt fine initially, but after 2 days started having a lot of cramping, lower back pain, and bloating. Then my breasts became EXTREMELY SORE. I’m talking early pregnancy sore, and I kept feeling nauseous and moody with intense hot flashes. I was feeling quite anxious with all these symptoms and took an early response preg test 5 days before my period was due. It was negative, later that night, my period started."

For Emergency Contraception "2 1/2 weeks ago, my partner and I had unprotected intercourse, and he didn’t pull out on time and ejaculated in me, but not fully. According to 'Flo,' it was the day after my highest ovulation day. A friend of mine got me a pill at Planned Parenthood, and it ended up costing 10 dollars, and I took it 2 hours later. 5-6 days after I took the pill, I started bleeding, it was red but brown, and it wasn’t spotting, it lasted for about 4-5 days. I also got headaches, dizziness, and a little bit of bloating. 1 1/2 weeks later (now), I still haven’t started my period, and I’m 2 days late. I don't know what to do, but other females on here said they got their period 2 weeks late, so I am hoping I am as lucky as them to get my period. Thank you to the ladies who left reviews, it has helped calm me down a lot. I hope I’m not pregnant and that I get my period soon. I’ve been praying a lot, and I hope it works for you females."

For Emergency Contraception "My girlfriend and I were freaking out, and our stress was through the roof. Our condom ripped, and I had completely finished inside of her when she was 5 days from ovulation. However, she now had her period, so thankfully the pill worked, and hopefully we don’t have any more of these scares. As hard as it is to not panic or stress, try not to! Pray and stay positive, it’ll work!"

For Emergency Contraception "I had unprotected sex on 11/7 and took Levonorgestrel 1.5 mg on the 14/7, and this was my first time taking this dosage. Let me tell you, I had the worst side effects ever. I was bloated, abdominal pain was off the roof, the nausea unbearable, mood swings, and loss of appetite. Oh, and my breasts felt like they were on fire. I was in so much pain. I was really, really stressed. I really thought I was preggo because those side effects matched those of pregnancy. I took a test 2 days ago, and it came out negative. 3 days after my expected date, I got my period. My advice is to STAY CALM AND STAY OFF THE INTERNET because I got a bit crazy. The pill works, but be prepared for some major side effects and anxiety. Mental note: please get on the pill or some other form of regular contraception."

For Emergency Contraception "Before reading my experience, I just want to tell you that you need NOT TO PANIC!! IT REALLY WORKS! I had unprotected sex on the 5th of May with a male friend that I had not been dating, nor did I see a future with. We weren’t financially ready to provide for the child. However, he came inside of me twice. After unprotected sex, I took a morning-after pill about 40 hrs later (a bit late, right!). During the time of taking the morning-after, I rarely had any side effects or symptoms of the pill, I tried my best not to stress and let the pill do its job. Therefore, I went about with my regular life activities and stopped stressing. Six days after (May 13th) taking the pill, my period arrived. Thanks be to God, He is great!"

For Emergency Contraception "I promised to write here after drinking the morning-after pill. So I had mine after unsafe sex... then I had heavy bleeding. Next month, I was waiting for my period, it came so late! I was worried, stressed, everything. But believe me, trust the process! My period came 12 days late! But I would recommend not to take the medicine often. Take care, girls!"

For Emergency Contraception "This is my story: never been happier to see a period. On Jan 1st, 2025, was the last day of my last menstrual cycle (period). I had sex on Jan 4th or 5th around midnight, he came inside of me. I took a morning-after pill within 36 hours. On Jan 7th, he came inside me again, I took another morning-after pill within 18 hours of the act. About a week after taking the pill, I was spotting light pink (like implantation bleeding) and a day of heavy bleeding. I knew that wasn't my period. My belly was bloated the whole time, and I had back pains. My period was 25 days late. Now, thanks be to Yahweh, my period is here today, and the flow is heavy and bright, bright red."
