the morning after pill is like a large dosage birth control pill. this pill is also know as emergency contraception.
this pill causes one of three things to happen
1. Ovulation is inhibited, meaning the egg will not be released;
2. The normal menstrual cycle is altered, delaying ovulation; or
3. It can irritate the lining of the uterus so that if the first and second actions fail, and the woman does become pregnant, the human being created will die before he or she can actually attach to the lining of the uterus.
some people believe in the third case that it is considered an abortion.. however that depends on how you define when life starts..
like any other pill it has side effects....
* nausea
* vomiting
* infertility
* breast tenderness
* ectopic pregnancy (can be life threatening)
* blood clot formation
these are only a few..
if you are thinking of using it... you should read into and research it for yourself.

It is perscribed by a GP or bought in a pharmacy and can be taken up to 72 hours after having unprotected sex and basically induces a period ensuring that any fertilised eggs do not implant or have the chance to continue.

you screw, condom breaks, take the morning after pill, you wont get preg...
you screw, too drunk to even use condom, remember that you didnt use condom, take the pill, you wont get preg...
thats the morning after pill (or plan b pill) in a nutshell...
remember though, birth control pills are not always 100% effective, even when taken correctly.
use a condom.....know your partner......or just keep your damn pants on.
