Emergency contraceptive pills are designed for emergency use only. They are not regular contraceptives and should not be used continuously or too frequently. Frequent use may have the following effects on the body:
- Irregular or abnormal menstrual cycles
- Side effects such as nausea, headaches, chest pain
- Hormonal imbalance affecting long-term health
Emergency contraceptive pills should not be used more than twice a month because they contain higher hormone levels than regular contraceptives. The more you take, the higher the hormone intake, which may cause side effects on the body.
Safer alternatives
- Condoms: easy to use, prevent both pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases
- Oral contraceptive pills, implants, injections, or IUDs
- Consult a specialist to choose the method that best suits your body
