For the last month just after the week of
my menstruation, I had an uprotected sex
with my boyfriend. I remembered about
provera which a friend told me about as a
day after pill so I took 2 within 24 hrs.
And another 1 the next day, I did the same
thing after another unprotected
intercourse. I will be expecting my
period on the 15th/16th and today is the
8th of december. Does provera work as an
emergency pill? Im really scared of
getting pregnant for the fact that I am
still a studying and I dont want to
undergo the physical and mental pain of
abortion if ever. Please help me asap...

Hi Posted: 12-08-05 15:33pm
I never new that provera was a morning and
after pill, I take provera because my
doctor prscribe it for me because I have
irregular periods, and I have a thyriod
problem as well, but I never new about
provera being morning or after, maybe you
ought to ask your doctor about that, and
as for having a miscarriage its very
dangerous and excrusating pain to have one
, then you would have to go the er room,
if you think you are pregnant go see your
doctor, and you sure dont want to have an
abortion, that will be with you the rest
of your life, and the way the abort a baby
now is terrible to watch. Hope this
helps you good luck to you on your
decision , merry christmas, :d

Day After Pill Posted: 12-08-05 23:43pm
No no no I dont want abortion thats why I
am seeking help on what to take. I cant
afford to have a baby and put my family's
name in jeopardy. My folks are pretty
much prominent in our city and they sure
won't be happy if I wont get my period on
the 16th. Please help.

Provera?? As in depo-provera?? Is it
not a shot? It was when I took it. Did
you take a morning after pill or ??? I'm
confused as to what you took and how you
got it.

No, I think "provera" is a birth control
pill. But your friend told you an urban
legend. The story that like in the 70's
and 80's when the ecp wasn't available
(still isn't some places) you could just
take normal birth control as an ecp, but
it doesn't work like that. It's just a
story.
It doesn't matter how prominent your
family is unless you're in a big city,
really. I live in a town of 25k
population and in a few of the prominent
families here the girls are really slutty
(they would make you and this situation
look like a nun taking her vows) and
everybody knows it but nobody cares. One
girl's dad actually chaperoned homecoming
and watched as his little girl was
grinding with a *group* of guys around
here, her skirt was up to her boobs and
she looked like she was getting gang
banged. But the next day, nobody said
anything because nobody cared, it was old
news that she was slutty.

Hey Posted: 12-11-05 22:54pm
How old are you greeny? If you dont want
this baby then the only thing to do is
abortion, the only time is when you can
get the morning and after pill is when
your really early in pregnancy, but if
you dont believe in abortion, then this
babies yours and its coming wether you
dont want it or not, you cant stop it,
unless you abort it. So I wish you I
could help you more... Good luck to
you. God bless you. From hotty :wink:

There's always open adoption. You can
still visit the child and have updates or
whatever, but you'd be like the family
friend, maybe an aunt or a cousin,
something like that.
I wish my sister had done that. You'd be
giving your child a better life than you
could give to it, but you'd still be able
to see how well the child is doing. Then
when the kid is "of age" (whatever the
adoptive parents choose) they will
probably tell him/her that you are their
biological mother.
I don't even remember where it came from
but I love the quote, "it's easier for me
to kill you than to wave goodbye." because
it sort of simplifies the way I see
things. I hope i'm not too pushy about
this.

Provera is not a morning after pill. It
will not prevent conception. I don't
know who told you this but they are wrong.
You take provera to bring on your period
if you have irregular periods and you fail
to menstrate. I have pcos so I have had
to take it to bring on my period. The
dosage you took would do nothing to you,
it might cause your period to start early.
I doubt it, you normally have to take it
for 10 days to get your period. I would
recommend trying a condom or birth control
pills. You can't expect to abort a baby
everytime you "forgot" to use a condom.
Grow up....
