Who qualifies for treatment

Our EU-licensed doctors review each case individually to ensure Levonorgestrel is safe and appropriate for your specific situation. The assessment focuses on the timing of unprotected intercourse, your menstrual cycle stage, and your overall medical history. Levonorgestrel is an emergency contraceptive effective within 72 hours of unprotected sex. The doctor will consider any existing medical conditions, current medications, and allergies to ensure there are no contraindications.

What Levonorgestrel actually does (and doesn't do)

Levonorgestrel is a progestogen-only emergency contraceptive, commonly known as the 'morning-after pill.' It works primarily by delaying or inhibiting ovulation, preventing the release of an egg. It is most effective when taken as soon as possible after unprotected intercourse, ideally within 72 hours. It is crucial to understand that Levonorgestrel is not a regular form of contraception, nor is it an abortion pill. It will not terminate an existing pregnancy and does not protect against sexually transmitted infections.

Levonorgestrel is effective within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse. For situations beyond 72 hours (up to 120 hours), ulipristal (ellaOne) may be considered, subject to doctor's assessment.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Levonorgestrel can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects include nausea, abdominal pain, headache, dizziness, and breast tenderness. Your next period might be early or late, and bleeding might be heavier or lighter than usual. If you vomit within three hours of taking Levonorgestrel, you may need to take another dose. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, unusual vaginal bleeding, or if your period is more than a week late after taking the pill.
