I want to know if it is true that ruda (plant) operates like an emergency contraception?

Dangerous herb!: Although some sites say that Ruta (Rue, rutin) can be used for this, do NOT try it! In doses high enough to do this, it is very dangerous. It is considered to be an unsafe herb and can cause severe kidney and liver damage. See http://www.drugs.com/npp/rue.html
