What is Next Day Pill?
The "next day" or "morning after" pill is a medication that can
be taken within 24 hours of unprotected intercourse to prevent
pregnancy. If you had sex without protection or the condom broke,
you can take the morning after pill to prevent pregnancy from
occurring. At this time, some states require that you have a
prescription from your doctor or gynecologist, and some states will
allow pills to be purchased directly from the pharmacy counter.
The morning after pill should be used as a last resort only.
Measures should be taken ahead of time to prevent pregnancy
whenever possible. Not only are morning after pills expensive, but
they make you very sick when you take them.
