Shoul my girlfriend take the nextday pill as a prevention of pregnancy?

the thing is we are not sure if she got sperm in her part so she took it as a prevention, is that bad?

Shoul my girlfriend take the nextday pill as a prevention of pregnancy?
The morning after pill is a good way to prevent pregnancy after intercourse within 72 hours. However it is only for occasional use and is expensive. She should look into using birth control and condoms. If she took it within 72 hours of having sex, she should be pretty safe from getting pregnant. But from now on please try to be better protected.
Reply:For starters you should always use condoms and since she is sexually active she should be using a form of birth control such as the pill. The 'Day after pill' can bring on a heavy bleed which is quite painful and should not be taken regularly. You both sound as if you need sex counselling. Ask at your school or talk to you doctor about it
Reply:No, that's not bad, that's what it is designed to do. You take it whenever you think you might have had unsafe sex. If she took it within 72 hours (3 days) of unprotected sex, she should be well protected from pregnancy. But, she can STILL take it within 120 hours (5 days) and still be protected from pregnancy.


Best of luck!


Peace,


Jenn
Reply:i think it is a good thing that you took pro caution but from now on get her to use birth control and always wear a condom in case she misses a day remember safe sex is the best way not to get pregnant especially if your not wanting a child right now but taking the morning after pill was a good thing to do wish you luck
Reply:The pill is really expensive and is to be only used for certain 'emergencies'. If you didn't use protection (which you always should!) then it isn't bad that you took it, i'm glad she did take it! If she did have sperm in her then she should be fairly safe now. Be careful next time, i'm sure you don't want to be a daddy this young!
Reply:The best way to prevent pregnancy is to not have sex. Why aren't people wising up to that?
Reply:i agree with Loraine!!! Save it for marriage folks!!
