The Morning After Pill


"Postinor" nicknamed the "morning after pill" is officially allowed to sold by pharmacies without prescription.This pill is meant for emergency contraception.They are meant to be given to a rape victim or in case of a ruptured condom and meant to be taken within 72 hours of the incident.
This pill has a huge dose of a hormone called progesterone.The salesmen in pharmacies promote the pill for routine use.This results in highly irregular menstrual cycles.This happens when a woman uses the pill several times a month.This leads to unwarranted fear and expensive medical consultations
"Postinor" in fact is only a emergency contraceptive agent and not strictly a "morning after "pill. A married couple may use it when a condom breaks or when intercourse occurs without contraception in an unexpected situation.( like the husband working abroad comes home suddenly for a short visit) On the other hand if a lady has taken "Postinor"she need not worry if periods become sightly irregular.
