What is Emergency Hormonal Contraception?
Emergency Hormonal Contraception, often referred to as the “morning-after pill,” is a time-sensitive option to prevent unintended pregnancies after unprotected sex or contraceptive failure. It consists of a high dose of hormones that work to prevent ovulation or fertilisation.

When to Consider Emergency Hormonal Contraception?
- Condom breakage or slippage
- Missed contraceptive pills
- Failed withdrawal method
- Forgotten contraceptive patch or ring
How Does It Work?
Emergency Hormonal Contraception primarily works by preventing or delaying ovulation. It may also alter the cervical mucus consistency to hinder sperm movement. The effectiveness increases the sooner you take it after unprotected sex.
Are There Side Effects?
Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, breast tenderness, and changes in the menstrual cycle. These effects are usually temporary and subside on their own.
Seek Professional Guidance
While Emergency Hormonal Contraception is effective, it’s not intended for regular use. If you find yourself needing emergency contraception frequently, consider discussing long-term contraceptive methods with a healthcare professional.
