Who qualifies for treatment

Our EU-licensed doctors assess your eligibility for Levonorgestrel as emergency contraception. This involves a review of your medical history, current medications, and the timing of unprotected intercourse. Levonorgestrel is effective when taken within 72 hours (3 days) of unprotected sex. The doctor will evaluate factors such as:

• Your last menstrual period and cycle regularity.
• Any known allergies to medication components.
• Pre-existing medical conditions like severe liver disease or malabsorption syndromes.
• Other medications you are currently taking that might interact with Levonorgestrel.

The consultation ensures that Levonorgestrel is the safest and most effective option for your specific situation.

What Levonorgestrel actually does (and doesn't do)

Levonorgestrel is an emergency contraceptive, commonly known as the 'morning-after pill.' It works primarily by preventing or delaying ovulation. If ovulation has already occurred, it may prevent fertilisation or implantation. It is crucial to understand that:

• It is not an abortion pill: Levonorgestrel will not terminate an existing pregnancy.
• It is not a regular contraceptive method: It should only be used in emergency situations and does not protect against future acts of unprotected sex.
• It does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

For maximum effectiveness, Levonorgestrel should be taken as soon as possible after unprotected intercourse, ideally within 12 hours, and no later than 72 hours (3 days).

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Levonorgestrel can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects include:

• Nausea or vomiting
• Abdominal pain
• Headache
• Dizziness
• Breast tenderness
• Fatigue
• Changes to your next period (it may be earlier, later, or heavier than usual)

If you vomit within three hours of taking Levonorgestrel, contact your doctor as you may need another dose. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, unusual vaginal bleeding, or signs of an allergic reaction (e.g., rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing). These could indicate a more serious issue or an ectopic pregnancy, though rare.
