For Emergency Contraception "Don't stress yourself, dear, 'cause IT REALLY WORKS. If you're here, then maybe you're just like me, freaking out. I had unprotected sex and didn't know what to do. I browsed online, learned about the pill, and I'm so happy I visited this site. Came here to read some reviews. It was the first time I tried taking a pill, and I was too worried about some discomfort experienced by others, but those positive reviews I've read helped a lot to ease my mind. Still, I bought My Way pill. There are none available in-store, so I had to buy it online and have it delivered. It took me 36 hours before I took the pill. I'm so happy I DIDN'T EXPERIENCE ANY DISCOMFORT and GOT MY PERIOD a week after taking the pill. Thanks for leaving some reviews, positive or negative, because it helped me prepare myself for any upcoming discomfort. If I hadn't read those comments, I'm sure I would totally freak out even more."

For Emergency Contraception "I have used the My Way emergency pill a few times now after having unprotected sex. This time I used it just as I would have used it in the past, but this time my period was 8 days late. I was afraid to take a pregnancy test, so I looked at some reviews before taking the test. I read that a few women experienced late periods, while others wrote about how the pill had failed to protect them from pregnancy. Well, my new experience is the same as those women whom the pill had failed. I am pregnant after taking the pill only hours after having unprotected sex. Although this pill has worked for me in the past, it has not worked now. Just wanted to share my unbelievable experience. It’s shocking and a lesson learned for real. Condoms are the better option."

For Emergency Contraception "My boyfriend and I had sex on my fertile week, but he did not finish inside me. I took this pill as a precaution 48 hours after that. I'm not pregnant, so that's a good thing. Delayed my period for 3 days, that freaked me out for a bit. Also got intense PMS symptoms - intense back pain and mood swings during the first 2 days of my period. Ovulation was a bit uncomfortable - the first time I could actually feel it. Other than that, it worked well. Will start on birth control so that I don't have to experience the horrible mood swings anymore."
