Actually you are quite right. For example 1 tablet of Yuzpe which is an after morning pill is equal to 5 tabs of Loette which is an everyday. 10 tabs is too much though....it will work...but you may get a lot of side effects like nausea, headaches and breast engorgement. It can also be dangerous if you have pre-existing liver problems or blood clotting disorders. Its best to consult your pharmacist or dr before you attempt it.

Dear Struck_now
This is a common misperception, as years ago doctors would often tell you to take a whole pack of contraceptive pills in place of the emergency pill, but since then the pill has changed, and there are now so many different ones on the market that this is not at all advisable, as manyof them will not work in this way.
You need to get yourself down to either a chemist, a doctors, or a family planning clinic, and they will give you a dose of levonelle. It is now just a single pill that you take. remember - the sooner you take it the less risk you have from unplanned pregnancy occurring. Depending on where in the country you live some Chemists will prescribe the pill for free - elsewhere it is £25. The family planning clinic or your doctor will give it to yo for free.
Some accident and Emergency wards will also prescribe it, but you should phone and check in advance, as not all of them do.
Do it now, Stuck_now - don't take the chance, hon
Good luck x

Nooooo! Dont do that!! I take it you need the morning after pill?? When did u have unprotected sex - if last night i THINK u can wait til 2moro morning - check out some family planning sites online - if it was before that, try NHS direct - you may have an out of hours GP clinic who can prescribe which will possibly be based at your local hospital - open today etc.

No please don't do that if you're considering it.
Go to your nearest Chemist for the emergency pill - many are open til about 12.30 - 13.00 on a Sunday - if not first thing tomorrow morning. I'm not going to have a go, it's happened to many of us at some stage - just try and learn from your mistakes. Good luck

In no way is it the same. Just go to a clinic and get the correct pill.
And after all thats said and done maybe consider anal sex.......but not all of the time because you dont want your spokes to get blown out. LOL But seriously it does feel good.
Good Luck!!!

No its not.
If you need emergency contraception go to your local pharmacy and ask them.
