advice re egg donation/morning after pill

7 replies

problem · 15/05/2006 15:07

I wonder if anyone can please give me any advise. I am donating eggs to a friend and we are hoping to start treatment in the next 3 weeks or so. I have been off of the pill now for a couple of weeks in preparation. We have been using condoms but unfortunately had an accident last night. I want to take the morning after pill as I am on about days 15 of my cycle so do not want to risk anything but I am concerned this will effect my egg donation or have to delay it more.
I have tried to call the clinic to ask but cannot get through as the phone is busy.
Can anyone tell me about it?

Quite a specific question...I am doing ivf so I understand the worry but I don't have anything like the expertise to answer it. You'll have to persevere with the clinic or post on www.fertilityfriends.com (.co.uk?) - I think they have a couple of 'experts' who might be able to help.
(Get some sunglasses first, it's bouncy-icon city on that site.)
