What You Need to Know
What is E-ConTM MORNING AFTER?
E-ConTM MORNING AFTER is emergency contraception that helps prevent pregnancy after birth control failure or unprotected sex. It is a backup method of preventing pregnancy and should not be used as regular birth control.
What E-ConTM MORNING AFTER is not.
E-ConTM MORNING AFTER will not work if you are already pregnant and will not affect an existing pregnancy. E-ConTM MORNING AFTER will not protect you from HIV infection (the virus that causes AIDS) and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
When should I use E-ConTM MORNING AFTER?
The sooner you take emergency contraception, the better it works. You should use E-ConTM MORNING AFTER within 72 hours (3 days) after you have had unprotected sex.
E-ConTM MORNING AFTER is a backup or emergency method of birth control you can use when:- your regular birth control was used incorrectly or failed
- you did not use any birth control method
When not to use E-ConTM MORNING AFTER.
E-ConTM MORNING AFTER should not be used:- as a regular birth control method, because it’s not as effective as regular birth control.
- if you are already pregnant, because it will not work.
- if you are allergic to levonorgestrel or any other ingredients in E-ConTM MORNING AFTER.
When should I talk to a doctor or pharmacist?
Ask a doctor or pharmacist before use if you are taking efavirenz (HIV medication) or rifampin (tuberculosis treatment) or medication for seizures (epilepsy). These medications may reduce the effectiveness of E-ConTM MORNING AFTER and increase your chance of becoming pregnant. Your doctor may prescribe another form of emergency contraception that may not be affected by these medications.
How does E-ConTM MORNING AFTER work?
E-ConTM MORNING AFTER is one tablet with levonorgestrel, a hormone that has been used in many birth control pills for several decades. E-ConTM MORNING AFTER contains a higher dose of levonorgestrel than birth control pills, but works in a similar way to prevent pregnancy. It works mainly by stopping the release of an egg from the ovary. It is possible that E-ConTM MORNING AFTER may also work by preventing fertilization of an egg (the uniting of sperm with the egg) or by preventing attachment (implantation) to the uterus (womb).
How can I get the best results from E-ConTM MORNING AFTER?
You have 72 hours (3 days) to try to prevent pregnancy after birth control failure or unprotected sex. The sooner you take E-ConTM MORNING AFTER, the better it works.
How effective is E-ConTM MORNING AFTER?
If E-ConTM MORNING AFTER is taken as directed, it can significantly decrease the chance that you will get pregnant. About 7 out of every 8 women who would have gotten pregnant will not become pregnant.
How will I know E-ConTM MORNING AFTER worked?
You will know E-ConTM MORNING AFTER has been effective when you get your next period, which should come at the expected time, or within a week of the expected time. If your period is delayed beyond 1 week, it is possible you may be pregnant. You should get a pregnancy test and follow up with your healthcare professional.
Will I experience any side effects?- some women may have changes in their period, such as a period that is heavier or lighter or a period that is early or late. If your period is more than a week late, you may be pregnant.
- if you have severe abdominal pain, you may have an ectopic pregnancy, and should get immediate medical attention.
- when used as directed, E-ConTM MORNING AFTER is safe and effective. Side effects may include changes in your period, nausea, lower stomach (abdominal) pain, tiredness, headache, dizziness, and breast tenderness.
