Who qualifies for treatment
When reviewing your case, the doctor assesses several factors to ensure ellaOne is safe and effective for you. This includes:
- Timing of unprotected intercourse: ellaOne is effective up to 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected sex.
- Medical history: The doctor checks for any conditions or medications that might interact with ellaOne or make it unsuitable for you.
- Allergies: Any known allergies to ulipristal acetate or other components of ellaOne.
- Current pregnancy status: ellaOne is not an abortion pill and should not be used if you are already pregnant.
The doctor's priority is always your safety and the appropriateness of the treatment.
What ellaOne actually does (and doesn't do)
ellaOne (ulipristal acetate) is an emergency contraceptive, also known as the 'morning-after pill.' It works by delaying or inhibiting ovulation, preventing the release of an egg from the ovary. Without an egg to fertilise, pregnancy cannot occur.
- Effective within 120 hours: ellaOne is most effective the sooner it's taken, but can be used up to 5 days after unprotected sex.
- Not a regular contraceptive: It is not intended for routine use and does not protect against future acts of unprotected sex.
- Not an abortion pill: ellaOne does not terminate an existing pregnancy.
- No STI protection: It offers no protection against sexually transmitted infections.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medicines, ellaOne can cause side effects, though not everybody gets them. Common side effects include headache, stomach pain, nausea, and menstrual disturbances (e.g., earlier or later period). These are usually mild and temporary.
Seek immediate medical attention if you experience:
- Severe abdominal pain, especially if accompanied by shoulder pain, as this could indicate an ectopic pregnancy.
- Any signs of a severe allergic reaction (e.g., rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing).
Always read the patient information leaflet provided with the medication for a full list of potential side effects and warnings.
