Morning After Pill - need some advice!?!
Question: Morning After Pill - need some advice!.?
Hi - my friend has been bending my ear for advice, and I am really not sure so I turn to you lot for some words of wisdom.
My friend took the morning after pill about a month ago after a condom broke. She then had a period... and had sex again over the next couple of weeks (protected). She then had to go on antibiotics for five days. A few days after stopping the antibiotics she had unprotected sex (and yes, she has had her head bitten off for this, so no judgement please, she won't be reading this!) - from what I can work out, the sex was on her most fertile day (ovulation wise). She took the morning after pill AGAIN the next day, but she has just rung me in a panic because her boobs are really sore and she read somewhere about antibiotics affecting the MAP, and them not working as much during ovulation...
Any advice I can pass on would be great - I've told her to go to the doctor, and she has and appointment on Friday - but I'd like to be able to give her some reassurance or something to go on, cos she is totally frazzled.
Thank you, you lot!!Health Question & Answer

Call your local hospital and ask for an Advice Nurse. If you do not have access to their number, you can call (775) 445-8000 (Carson Tahoe Regional Medical Center) and ask for their advice nurse. I would be much more comfortable with you receiving advice from a medical professional. You are liable to get all sorts of rediculous responses here that will not help your friend. Just my 2 cents...Health Question & Answer
