The Morning After Pill (or Plan B) is a hormone based pill taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex to PREVENT pregancy. The Abortion Pill (Mifipristone, RU-486) is a pill taken after a women is already pregnant as an alternative to a traditinal abortion.
I have been seeing many posters in here tell young teenage girls not to take the Morning After Pill because they will be aborting their baby. This is simply not true. The morning after pill is a way to PREVENT unwanted pregancy after the fact.
Besides, if you are a mother I would hope you understand that implantation does not occur right after sex, it can take days. Which is why the Morning After pill must be taken within 72 hours...
