Can I use nordette as a morning after pill twice in one month? I took it twelve days ago(sept. 10), I still didn't get my period. Now I need to take it again. Before that, I took it last aug. 18 and got my period on aug. 30. Please help. Is it okay to take it again today?

It is a brand used for the morning after pill, ( but it is also a brand of normal birth control pills) the difference is in the dosage amount./

So, this will need to be the actual morning after pill, not a every day birth control pill.

Also, the number of pills to be taken, varies by dosage, so, you need to follow the directions exactly

** also, this is only about 89 percent effective at best. Repeated use, will lower the effect. So, this usage may be less than the 89 percent effective.

Side effects vary, and can each use. Please read the following link on drug dosage and side effects

Morning after pills are not designed to be a regular form of birth control. They are for emergency use only.

If you are going to be sexually active and do not want to get pregnant, then you should use other forms of birth control. There are many options to choose from.
