How do i use emergency contraception? there is a pill here that's used for ecp. 4 pills at once and 4 others after 12 hours. can i take 8 all at once?

No! Take as directed: Pleeeeeease! always take medications as directed. If it says to take 4 pills at once, and then another 4 pills 12 hours later, do it that way, not all 8 at once (not if you want to avoid pregnancy). If manufacturers had wanted you to take all 8 at once, they'd have given you those directions. Of course, there are also 1 pill emergency contraceptives, too. But bottom line, take as directed.

Too many side effect: Over the counter bc options or taking high dose regular birth control pills works. Some with more side effects than others. For specifics see www.Not-2-late.Com. Regular ongoing birth control works better. Pills, patches, ring are options, but require regular use. Consider long acting options of iud and implant. They're the most effective and easy!
