    good/bad of morning after pill.
    Um. Hi, I'm pretty new to this and everything. But me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex, he pullout before he came, that was on Tuesday around 8:45-9:00pm, we are still nervous, and tomorrow, Friday we're going to get a Morning After Pill.
    What I'm asking is, will it be to late to get one, because really, it's only been like a few hours over two days now. I've been reading a lot about it, and it says should be taken within the first 72 hours, or 120 hours. Friday at 8:45-9:00pm will be the 72 hours.
    Both of us are completely nervous right, he promised to do all the talking tomorrow morning, which I have no problem letting him. I'm just really nervous, and he has no clue what ask, someone said to walk up to the lady behind the counter at the walk in clinic and tell them "We need a morning after pill, it urgent."

    Any helpful advice would be loved.

    I need some timely advice, not some random words.

    All information give in a public health facility remains private. However, I would like for you to honestly sit down and think reasonably about this situation.

    You know as well as I know, it is nearly impossible to become pregnant when sperm cannot or does not reach the uterus where it reaches the egg(s). Furthermore, it takes a maxium amount of sperm to increase the chance of one reaching the egg.

    So, Don't let the facts, get in the way of the truth. If your boyfriend did not finish in you, it is likely you will not become pregnant, anyway.

    From now on, you should practice safer sex to avoid sexually transmitted diseases. Their consequenses usually are much more serious than those of having a baby.

    Hope this answers your question!

    I'm not sure what your would call timely advice but I'll take a stab in the dark. I agree with what bk said.. its nearly impossible for the sperm to arrive a the egg in the uterus anyway! So if his 'whole load' wasn't administered then you have almost no chance of getting pregnant. If you would definitely feel more comfortable with taking the pill then you should, that way it won't eat you alive.. with should have.. and could haves.. though the longer you wait, the less likely the pill will actually work.

    As for getting it.. don't even worry about it.. in canada and the states it sold over the counter.. no problems asked.. they won't be judgemental as they get people in their all the time for that sort of thing.. that shouldn't be a concern.. you just have to make sure that your first and foremost sdt free.. and healthy.. don't even worry about it. Do whatever you think will settle your nerves.
