Um, hi... :(
I'm new to using contraception pills. I went to the local drug store and asked for emergency contraception pills. I know am supposed to take them within 5 days of sex... its been 2 days as yet.
But these are 28 pills in this golden pack, Microgynon ED andthey are Birth control pills and I don't understand how to use them, I asked the pharmacist and he said just follow the arrows at the back.
Can someone please please help me out here? :confused:

You need to call the pharmacist back and clarify look I don't understand please help me... they should be able to help

:D thank you for your help... turns out I needed the different brand and yeah I went back to the pharmascist and got the right pills.
I took the emergency pills immediately after, are these effective? :confused:

Yes.. it give you a high dose of contraceptive hormones that will prevent you from getting pregnant... almost as if you were on birth control

Thank you so much... I hope am not pregnant though :p

Hello, :confused:
Um... after I had the whole unprotected intercourse, I immediately took the emergency contraception pills yea. That was I think around two weeks ago, I was supposed to get my period on the 5th of this month, I haven't as yet. I took a home pregnancy test on the 5th and it came negative. But I've felt a li'l dizzy, no nausea, but a li'l irritabilty. Kind of like the symptomsof pregnancy ( I checked them on the net) I haven't been peeing that much really.
I am planning to take another one on the 8th.
Is it possible that I could be pregnant?
:(

Emergency contraceptives shouldn't be used as a form of regular birthcontrol, that was your first mistake. Go to the doctor if you're still worried.

OK, this was nearly two months ago... so... uh... tell us what happened with the whole situation? I'm curious as to if you are or not. Let us know how it turned out.

Hi, thanks for all your help guys. No am not pregnant, thank-fully. :)
