For Emergency Contraception "Took Next Choice One Dose because it was covered by my insurance. Had unprotected sex on Saturday. Took the pill on Monday. Side effects were headache and tiredness. It delayed my period by 4 days, first by spotting. At least I know I'm not pregnant."

For Emergency Contraception "I took the pill 1 hour after the condom broke. I was extremely worried because I had just ovulated, and I had read it might be less likely to work, but it did. No major side effects other than I was very, very tired a few hours after I took it."

For Emergency Contraception "I took this pill 10 days before my period. And took it 37 hours within the 72-hour requirement. It made me tired, and I had headaches, more than usual. Then, around the time of my period, I was a little worried, and the day before my period, I started to spot for 3 days. It was supposed to come on June 14. So I was even more worried. Then, come Monday, and thank God, my period came. I have never been more excited for my period to come until now!! IT WORKS."

For Emergency Contraception "I took Next Choice One Dose after unprotected sex in late Dec 2014. I just had ended my period a couple of days prior and probably was not ovulating but took it just in case. After taking the pill, I experienced tiredness the first day, awful cramps for a couple of days after, and then started to bleed for about 4 days, which seemed like a period. This is a common side effect I read. I was also told if you bleed after the pill, that usually means it worked. My period ended up coming last night, which is 8 days after my normal period date. I was stressed the whole time waiting for my period to come. Finally, it's here. This pill works!"

For Emergency Contraception "I'm writing this review just to ease the conscience of some of you out there, but trust me, this pill works. I've had to take Plan B and this pill, and they both did the job. Granted, with Plan B, I had fewer side effects, but this pill I took 12 hours after having unprotected sex. I wasn't at my most fertile time of the month, so that probably lessened my chances even more of getting pregnant, but I took it just to make sure. Right after I took it, I was extremely exhausted and took a really long nap. The other side effect I had was cramping and an occasional headache, but nothing too bad. I actually ended up getting my period a day early, but the cramps were excruciating. Other than that, I was fine. The earlier you take it, the better, ladies."

For Emergency Contraception "I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend a week ago from today. He did not cum in me. I took the pill right after I had sex. The night right after that, we had sex one more time, but he did not cum in me. I hear that you can get pregnant from precum if there are any leftover sperm cells in there. But you can flush any of that away when you pee. So he peed before that just in case. Four days later, I get an unusual period where the blood is less thick, though there are clots. I am having bad headaches every now and then, terrible cramps, dizziness, nausea, and tiredness. And today I had terrible back pain, which scares me a lot. The bleeding is only a little, and it is now really dark brown. I am really worried at this point. Am I okay?"
