if the morning after pill is taken in its correct dose within 72 hours of unprotected sex, it prevents 89 percent of pregnancies that would have occurred.
If you were already pregnant from sex earlier in your cycle --or if you have unprotected sex again a few days later, then all bets are off. The morning after pill is simply a mega-dose of the very same hormone that is contained in many daily-use birth control pills. It won't end a pregnancy, it simply prevents one, if used correcdtly.
The morning-after pill, also called Plan B or emergency contraception, is NOT intended for regular use and many doctors will tell you only to use it a couple of times in your lifetime. This is because Plan B is very hard on your body and causes more side effects than regular birth control.
And you should be aware that morning after pills are NOT as effective at preventing pregnancy as daily-use regular birth control pills or as condoms with spermicide.
I hope you will go to Planned Parenthood to get on regular birth control and use protection (condoms) to protect you from STDs. You only get one body so be good to it! In other words, try to avoid the need for mega-hormone-dose morning-after pills by planning ahead.

sperm can stay to tell the tale for as much as 5 days, the morning after pill is ninety 5% effectice if taken interior of 24 hours and then possibilities of having pregant besides are around eighty%, so as that they ordinary probability is approximately 10%, if ovualtion has certainly occured, if no longer then the probability is plenty decrease, however the morning after pill is rather efficient.

i dont know what the percentage rate is for the morning after pill, but i took one once and a week later i was still pregnant. because i didnt know what the effects would have been on that unborn child if i chose to continue the pregnancy, i ended up terminating the pregnancy.

Progestin-only emergency contraceptive pills, like Plan B "morning after pills" reduces risk of pregnancy by 89%.If these pills are taken within the first 24 hours after sex, they reduce risk of pregnancy by up to 95%.Emergency contraceptive pills containing both progestin and estrogen (known as “combined” pills) reduce the risk of pregnancy by 75%.
(Be aware That the exact effectiveness of emergency contraceptive pills is difficult to measure and some researchers believe the effectiveness may be lower than that reported on package labels.)
