I’ve just bought the morning after pill. Very sill but did the business Friday evening used the pull out method (completely unlike me) with my partner and now worrying. It was day 20 of my cycle but still anxious over it so bought the map. Now im
anxious about taking it. I’ve previously had endometriosis had it removed last year and literally only started having cycles without spotting for the last 6 months. I’m so worried if i take it it’ll mess my cycle up again and also will it kick off my endo again? Just wondering over others experience.

I have irregular periods and history with PCOS and possible Endo. However, I've taken morning after pill maybe times in my younger years when I was very early on in my relationship but I don't remember it having an effect on me tbh.

I took the morning after pill. It’s bloody dear. Only thing it may have been a coincidence but when my husband and I were ready for another baby four years later we really struggled with getting pregnant. Took us around 18 stressful months.

have taken it a few times. It messed up my next cycle but after that it was back to normal.

Thank you all. I’ve just realised it’s only effective before ovulation which I think has already happened so a little torn on what to do. Luckily it was only £10 but still don’t know what to do.

I took it a few years back and it really did knock my cycles out for a good few months.

I did,period came slightly earlier than expected, that was the only think I noticed.

The pharmacist apologised for the price there (£30) but I explained that it was much cheaper than the price of a third child...

I had to take one about a year ago when the condom tore. It moved my cycle back by about 3 days and made me feel sick that night but that's all. If you were day 20 of your cycle on the night you got busy then I really don't think you have anything to worry about but I'd still stress too cos I really don't want another baby 😂. You can take it if you think it would calm your nerves but chances are you were safe just because of the timing.

I felt like shit for a day and then was fine, did nothing to my cycle at all

I have taken before.
Came on early but returned to normal the next month.
However, be careful, as you say, is only effective before ovulation and if you are over a certain weight (I was) it is NOT effective.

Good luck 🍀
