Yes safe: ellaOne is a selective progesterone receptor modulator licensed for emergency contraception up to 120 hours (up to 5 days) after unprotected sex or contraceptive failure. Most common s/e are abdominal pain, menstrual disorders cramps. Occasionally vomiting. No long term effects according to the data. Benefits outweigh risks of unwanted pregnancy
