friends come on anymore....Im really sorry
I lost touch with everyone but I never get
onto a computer!....Ill fill you guys all

have a serious question.
Alright I have a friend who's in a pickle
and I was like damnnn ill come on ehealth
and ask... Okay she thinks she mite be
pregnant because she has been throwing up
everyday for 5 days... Shes convinced
that if she takes a birth control pill and
she is pregnant it will terminate the
pregnancy.. Now as far as I know that is
wrongg.. Back up here?
Oh and she wants to know how early y'all
had symptoms of pregnancy like throwing up
and stuff

Heeeey!! Michelle right? Yeah I pmed
you!
Yeah anyway, no it will not terminate her
pregnancy. Maybe if she takes 10 at once
or so, because that would be just like
taking a morning after pill, but even the
morning after pill only has an 80-85%
success rate. She needs to test. And if
she doesn't want the baby, she needs to
give it up for adoption. And if she can't
handle that, then start thinking about
abortion, but birth control is not an
effective way to terminate a pregnancy.

The birth control pill will not terminate
her pregnancy. Emergency contraception
should be used with 72 hours of
unprotected sex. There are only a few b/c
pills that are marketed for ec...
My symptoms didn't really come on until
about 6 weeks or so and they didn't get
really bad until about 7 1/2 weeks.
