Morning After Pill Question?

Question

If you were pregnant and you didnt know it and took the Morning after pill, would it Kill the baby or is the pill only effective in preventing? Just a curious question.Please dont be rude. Just one of the many things I wonder about.....TIA!

Answer 1

It's my understand that the morning-after pill works by preventing the implantation of an embryo in the uterus. In other words, conception has occurred but the fertilized egg passes out of your body during menstruation. This happens often enough naturally, and I don't consider it "killing."

If you're already pregnant and the embryo is implanted, a single dosage shouldn't hurt anything. However, multiple dosages may cause a miscarriage.

Answer 2

The morning after pill only prevents you from getting pregnant. And it is effective up to 72 hours of unprotected sex. If your already pregnant (or you know someone who is) and you/they took the morning after pill your going to want to see a doctor to make sure everything is going to be okay.

Answer 3

Plan B(morning after pill)
Plan B is not appropriate if you are already pregnant,it will not work. However, if you take Plan B and are already pregnant,it is unlikely that this would affect the pregnancy. Several studies involving the long term use of progestin hormone- containing contraceptives have not shown effects on the fetus.

So basically its not going to work if you are already pregnant, and it will not affect the fetus(baby).

Answer 4

no. the morning after pill is only effective for up to 72 hours after sex. i think there is an abortion pill that can be used only up to a certain point in pregnancy called the Plan B pill...but im not 100% sure on this.
