Emergency Contraception Snellville, GA<\/p>

When \u201cBang-ups and Hang-ups\u201d Happen to You<\/p>

In the immortal words of Dr. Seuss, \u201cI\u2019m sorry to say…but, sadly, it\u2019s true that Bang-ups and Hang-ups can happen to you.\u201d Sometimes these \u201cbang-ups and hang-ups\u201d come in the form of an unprotected sexual encounter.\u00a0 \"\"If \u201cPlan A\u201d is to avoid pregnancy, the activation of \u201cPlan B\u201d may become necessary. Marriam Webster defines \u201cPlan B\u201d as \u201can alternative plan of action for use if the original plan should fail.\u201d When it comes to pregnancy avoidance, women often opt to use emergency contraception as their \u201cPlan B.\u201d<\/p>

Emergency contraception<\/a> is birth control intended for use after having unprotected sex. Ideally, it should be taken within 3 to 5 days of doing so. Progesterone-only pills like Plan B One-Step, Next Choice One Dose, After Pill, Take Action, and My Way<\/em> are roughly 87% effective<\/a> in preventing pregnancy. The ingredients in the Ella<\/em> pill are more effective in preventing pregnancy and may be taken up to 5 days after sexual intercourse. However, Ella does require a prescription from a medical provider.\u00a0 Regardless of brand, research<\/a> shows that these pills become less effective in women heavier than 165 pounds and are not recommended for women above this weight.<\/p>

Before making a decision to use emergency contraception in Snellville GA, certain considerations should be taken into account to determine if this is the right course of action for you.<\/p>

MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TODAY<\/strong><\/a><\/p>

  1. Depending on where you are in your menstrual cycle, emergency contraception may not work at all. If you have sex while you are ovulating, waiting several days to take emergency contraception could be too late.<\/li>
  2. If you think you’re already pregnant, emergency contraceptives like those listed above will not work.<\/li>
  3. Side effects<\/a> like nausea, mild stomach pain, and headache may be experienced after taking emergency contraception. Occasionally, spotting may occur, or you may experience a disruption in your normal menstrual cycle.<\/li>
  4. Taking emergency contraception does not stop ovulation; it only delays it. Emergency birth control is all abouttiming<\/a>. If you wait too long, you might miss the window during which the pill can be effective. \"\"Another consideration is that if you have taken emergency contraceptive and you have unprotected sex again in the same cycle, the likelihood of becoming pregnant increases due to disruption of your cycle.<\/li>
  5. Emergency contraception does not protect you from s<\/a>exually transmitted infections<\/a>.<\/li>
  6. Choosing to refrain from having sex is the only means by which pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections can be avoided with 100 percent effectiveness. No matter what precautions are taken, no form of contraception is completely fail-proof.<\/li><\/ol>
