A member asked:
I want to know if i can use paracetamol to prevent myself from getting pregnant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No.: Only practicing safe sex prevents pregnancy. Paracetamol will not prevent pregnancy. It can cause liver damage if too much is taken, too. Use condoms to prevent disease and pregnancy. Add another form of birth control to be even safer from pregnancy.
