09/28/2016: Updating this post to say that Nordette is back on the market! Hurray!
I got word that Nordette has been phased out. Fret not, here’s a list of alternatives!
Here’s the list of alternatives, in case you can’t get Nordette.
Take 2 pills within 120 hours after unprotected sex and take 2 more pills 12 hours later: Femenal, Nordiol
Take 4 pills within 120 hours after unprotected sex and take 4 more pills 12 hours later: Charlize, Lady, Rigevidon 21 + 7, Seif, Trust Pills

As I’ve been feeling like people aren’t reading Emergency Contraception 101 before commenting on this post, I’ve taken the liberty of pasting the content below and updating the FAQs. READ the FAQs before asking, because of the most of the questions I’m still getting are already answered there. Thank you and be safe!

Emergency Contraception 101
So you had unprotected intercourse. You shouldn’t have, but you did. And now here we are! Fret not, you can fix this. You can use emergency contraception, a.k.a Plan B or the Morning After pill.
Here’s What You Do
- Ensure that it has only been 120 hours since your last unprotected intercourse. The closer you are to the zero hour, the better.
- Buy a pack of Nordette birth control pills. They usually come in a 21-pill pack and the active ingredients are ethinyl estradiol (30 mcg) and levonorgestrel (150 mcg). If you’re in the Philippines, Mercury Drugstore has this for less than 200 PHP. If you can’t get Nordette, see list of alternatives at the top of the page.
- Take 4 active pills at once.
- Wait 12 hours, document your side effects just in case.
- Take 4 more active pills.
- Get yourself to an OB-GYNE sometime this week to discuss more stable birth control methods because this is not healthy.
Rules, Actual Rules (New Section!)
- Take it in at most 120 hours. See FAQ item 1.
- If you vomit within three hours after taking a dose, retake. See FAQ item 10.
- Do NOT have unprotected intercourse in the week after taking ECP. See FAQ item 16.
Notes on Pills
- If the pack you got has 28 pills instead of 21, that’s fine. Each pack has 21 active pills and 7 placebo or reminder pills. Take the active pills.
- The active ingredient you’re really going for is the levonorgestrel, not the ethinyl estradiol.
- Technically, any pill that gives you a total of 1.5 mg of levonorgestrel (0.75 mg doses 12 hours apart) will do.

Side Effects
As usual, it depends on the person. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, withdrawal bleeding, bloating, cramps, and mood swings. This is because of the intense hormonal spike that you induced. So hopefully if you do this, you do it just this once.
FAQs
I am taking off from this post where a ton of readers left their comments.
- Is it still effective after 120 hours? Some sources say you can go up to 150 hours. After that I guess it would just be a matter of luck.
- Will they ask me for a prescription? Maybe yes, maybe no. Depends on the Mercury Drugstore branch attendees. You either go to every branch until someone sells you a pack, or you lie and say you left your prescription at home but you have been using it for a while. Read this.
- How many times can I use this method? Ideally, never. It screws with your hormones, and after all those side effects I think you wouldn’t want to do this more than once.
- But I bought the pack and it says take one a day for 21 days! Yes, that’s how we normally take the pill. You’re doing the emergency route. Think of it as one teaspoon of sugar in your coffee on a normal day vs. four teaspoons of sugar in a liter of water because you have gastroenteritis.
- Will I die? Extremely unlikely, unless you’re really dodgy on the heart. In which case, go to your OB-GYNE!
- What if I’m too scared of the side effects you talked about? Well then you’re just going to have to deal with the side effects of being pregnant which, surprise, are exactly the same! With the very small difference that you have to take care of a child for the next 18 years.
- If it doesn’t work and I get pregnant, will it affect the baby? No, it’s just hormones. When you take it, you basically have the hormones of four pregnant women in you. Crazy side effects, but won’t cause birth defects.
- What if I’m too ashamed to buy the pills? Get one of your more adventurous friends to buy it for you, or just suck it up because if you’re too ashamed to buy pills then good luck dealing with the social stigma of an unintended pregnancy.
- What if I’m not experiencing any side effects?! That is some superhuman strength right there I tell you. Just be calm and take a pregnancy test next month.
- Do I need to retake it if I vomit? “If you vomit within three hours of taking the ECP, you should see your pharmacist, doctor, or Family Planning clinic for advice and further tablets.” (Pharmacy Live)
- Can I take this while on my period? Yeah okay but since you’re already on your period and if you had intercourse just 120 hours ago, your menstrual cycle says you’re safe.
- How will I know it worked??? I know you’re worried AF, but besides taking a pregnancy test or waiting for your period, I don’t know. And if the digging I’ve done on the subject on the internet is to be trusted, nobody does either. There are a lot of factors that go into this (where you are in your cycle, what contraceptives you took, etc) so there’s really just no way of knowing immediately after taking ECP that it worked. Go ask reddit if you want more people to weigh in on that, but users there agreed that we just. Don’t. Know. Yes it’s a hassle but I can’t do anything about this. See also: FAQ item 13.
- It’s been several days since I took ECP, and now I’m bleeding, and it’s darker and less heavy than my normal period. What is happening? This is the withdrawal bleeding I mentioned earlier. It’s a fake period, and is NOT the start of your actual period. Why does it happen? Because you ingested a ton of hormones and when those hormones leave your body, you go through withdrawal just like with any other drug. With normal pill users, the withdrawal bleed happens on day 24 or day 25. Basically, pill users don’t ever actually menstruate, it’s all fake. Read this if you want to learn the nitty-gritty of pill use. As for your period, you’re going to have to be patient; it may be delayed due to the ECP. Just stay calm. If you want to be absolutely sure, then take a pregnancy test a month after the unprotected intercourse happened.
- Can I take more than 8? No. Put that pill pack down, you’re going to be fine.
- I haven’t taken any pills before, can I do this? Yes. Also consider going on the pill to avoid more of these episodes.
- Can I have unprotected sex right after I do this emergency procedure? Seriously? SERIOUSLY? Let’s put it this way… You left the stove on and the house almost burned down. You managed to put out the fire. And you’re going to leave the stove on again? Come on now. “ECPs are only good to protect against one act of unprotected sex. They work by blocking ovulation, but only for a few days, so if you take them and have unprotected sex again afterwards, you’re significantly increasing your risk of a pregnancy. If you have unprotected sex again within a few days of taking the pills, there will be more sperm waiting in the fallopian tubes when the egg is eventually released.” (Bedsider.org 2014)
- What do I do with the 13 leftover pills? Keep it in your purse if you think you’ll need it again.
- (New!) What happens if I take the second dose after 24 or 32 or whatever not-12-hours? Girl IDK don’t do it, the instructions say 12, do it in 12, k? Tnx.
- (New!) When can I start taking pills regularly? After you’ve verified that you’re not pregnant. Go see an OB-GYNE if you can!
Other Methods
- You can try to procure the real Plan B, just make sure that you’re getting it from a supplier you can trust. This supplier quotes it at 3000 – 3500 PHP.
- I have heard that Vitamin C can be used as an emergency contraceptive but I do not endorse it. I don’t know anyone who’s done this.
- You can get a copper IUD inserted by your OB-GYNE within 120 hours and it will also work as emergency contraception. Cost is 2500 PHP and up, and you can keep using it for the next 12 years. According to the US CDC, it’s 99.92% effective. Read this if you’re considering it. Not for the squeamish!

Hi girls! I hope this thread is still active. Naiistress ako sobra kasi hindi agad ako nakainom ng ecp. It took me 3 days before ko ininom ang 1st dose ko (more than 72 hours but within 120 hours after the deed). Hindi kasi ako makapagdecide kasi hinihintay ko ang natural period ko. I’m supposed ko have my regular period March 28 but hindi ako nagkaperiod that day kaya nagdecide ako uminom n ng ecp. But until now hnd pdn ako nagkakaron. I’m 4 days late na. Meron ba nakaexperience dito same as mine na hnd agad nakainom pero still effective ang ecp? Thanks sana makareply kayo!

Hi! My GF and I had an unprotected sex. In the heat of the moment, no condom was on for the first couple of minutes. Tapos tsaka naglagay.
Anyway here are the facts
1. We had sex the 3rd day after her last menstruation.
2. Only precum yung napunta. However, I ejaculated prior to our penetrative sex – hours before, pero i’m sure i peed before we had sex.
We decided for her to take ECP just to further reduce the odds of being pregnant. Kaya lang, medyo late, unlike most of the posts here. like around 4 days (96 hours) after the deed.
Currently we are waiting for the WB.
I know the odds are extremely low. Practically and logically speaking, I think hindi pregnant si GF. But nakaka-anxious parin for the both of us.
Just sharing this experience. Will update you from time to time.

I’ve been with my partner for like 7 years now. Almost 6 years of unprotected sex and just withdrawal and we decided to try using birth conrrol methods (calendar and condom) bec we want to be extra careful this time. Until my condom(okamoto 003) broke just after our third time using it and I’m pretty sure I stayed inside for a while. Though I ‘m pretty sure she is at her safe days, I still freaked out and had to search for emergency plan only to find out that Plan B is not sold in PH. So I let my partner take Lady instead less than 2 hours after the deed. We are still waiting for her withdrawal bleeding to come. Hope everything goes well.

Hi Hello. Hmmm. Nag unprotected sex po kami ng GF ko two days before her period, regular naman siya, so ayun nangyari na nga, I cummed inside her. Question, until now walang pang period GF ko. 3 days na siyang late and 5th day ngayon since ng unprotected sex. Posible bang pregnant na siya and if hindi pa pwede pa ba siya uminom ng emergency contraceptive? Ano pwede niya inumin, nag aalangan kasi siya mag take dahil may previous heart condition siya at history ng migraine. Nabasa ko kasi sa net na wag daw uminom ng nordette pag may ganyang past conditions. Sana may makasagot. Thank you po!!!!

Wala na ding available sa market kaya nabuo ang thread na to for alternatives. Yutzpe method ang tawag dito you can search it on google. Now since ika 5 days na nung unprotected sex nyo di na din possible ang method sa gf mo. Just wait and pray na lng na sana magkamens na sya.

Okay here’s the thing. If she’s on a regular 30 day cycle most likely she already ovulated last May 15-17 which means youre on the safe side but if not then she needs to take the pills as prescribed in this post as soon as possible (Lady/trust pills are very effective). Goodluck bro, next time make sure to pull out. Mahirap talaga magcontrol kapag nasa top sila haha pero matututunan mo din yan. Mind over matter lng yan. You’ll figure it out soon. Again, next time pull out dont be too careless.

Hi! We had short unprotected sex on May 20 (as in short, mga 5secs lang hahaha) So obv, walang ejaculation or what. Pero dahil paranoid ako, I took 4 Trust Pills May 20 at 9PM. Then 2 pills again the next day. I had withdrawal bleeding 1 week after pero yung bleeding everytime iihi lang ako and very light lang sa liner. Lalo akong naparanoid na baka implantation bleeding naman sya. Is this normal? Please enlighten me 😦

If walang ejaculation, most likely walang nangyari, and implantation bleeding is very rare kaya most likely WB yang sa iyo. Wear maluwang na cl9thes para free yung flow

Share ko lang yung experience ko regarding this whole fiasco. Nakikita ko kasi na ang daming natatakot at napapranois so to calm yourselves eto:
Nagdeed kami ng bf ko tapos napunit yung condom so nasa loob talaga lahat. And it was during my fertility window pa. So after 8 hours nag take agad ako ng 6 Trust Pills and took 6 pills after 12 hours uli. Wala akong any side effects maski hilo, pagsusuka, or migraine, wala talaga. So slightly na-paranoid ako pero hindi ko na pinaistress sarili ko. 1 week later, nag WB na ako. Alam kong WB siya kasi it is so heavy eh, I soaked 3 pads a day tapos nagtagal siya for 4 days. Di na ako nag PT kasi alam ko naman na di na ako buntis bc according to my friend ob-gyne,kung buntis ka, yung withdrawal period ng hormones ng pills na ininom mo ay malalabanan ng hormones ng katawan so walang WB na mangyayare, so if may WB kana then you are indeed safe . Tapos after a month, nag karoon na ako ng menstruation
Wag tauong ma-istress. Sana magkaroon na kayo lahat.

Kasi 125 mcg levenorgestrel ang Trust pills. 1500 mcg ang typical na volume sa isang plan B pill. So kailangan mo ng 12 pills. Kaya 6 ininom ko for the first dose and 2nd dose.

Hello, i have a question please help me.
I took my first 4 pills within 73 hours. 5:50 pm ako uminom kahapon (march 30) tapos yung second pills ko (12 hours after) 5:50 am, nakaramdam ako ng uneasy feeling. Para bang susuka ako. Umidlip ako, nakalagpas naman ako sa 3 hours rule. 9am pag gising ko ulit, sumuka ako.
Okay lang ba to? Do i need to retake it kahit lumagpas na ako sa 3 hours rule? Or am i good?

hi,
May 11 – Unprotected Sex
May12/13 – Took trust pills
May 14 – Unprotected Sex
May 17 – Protected Sex
May 19 – WB ( I can say na WB sya kasi melakas naman sya and may mga small clots, nag last sya ng 3-4days)
Then the rest of the days, sometimes parang may white mens ako and cramps.
June 5 – Expected period (Regular)
Now im confuse, they say kasi na once you took pills your next period is halos the same ng date kung kelan ka nag ka WB. Do you think mag kaka period ako sa expected regular period ko or should I wait till June 19? and ay chance ba na preggy ka kahit na nag ka WB ka?
I hope someone can help. thank you! 🙂

Hello po. I just want to ask for advice. Me and my girlfriend had an accident sex but not an intercourse. It was last Sunday, around 3 pm. I ejaculated and after a little while, I have inserted my finger to my girl’s. I’m not sure if i have some semen on my hand that moment. We are worried that it might get her pregnant. Can we do this method even without an OB-Gyne’s guidance? And is there an age limit in taking this pill?

Hi ! share ko lang ung samen ng GF ko. Nag decide kame na mag deed on May 28 (Monday) pero before I meet her nag masterbate muna ako para hindi gaano malakas ung lalabas. We had 3 rounds. first round is anal and after few minutes nag sex na ulet kame but protected with condom. 3rd round is unprotected sex kame and use withdrawal. So na paranoid ung gf ko kaya we decides to buy ECP (trust pill) and uminom siya on May 30 at exactly 5:23pm then the second dose 5:50am. After nya makainom mga 9:50am nagsuka siya. So nagtake ulet siya ng another 4 pills. Ngayon nakaka experience siya ng cramps as in sobrang masakit. June 5 is her ovulation day and sa araw na din na to Dinugo na din siya 1st day discharge siya na creamy pero sobrang brown then 2-3 days medium ung flow. Btw she’s in a normal 28 days cycle. May possibility ba na pregnant GF ko ? Maraming salamat sa sasagot!

The instruction in this article is how to use Trust Pills as an “emergency contraception” thus suggested taking 4 pills all at the same time. But if you are going to use it as a regular birth control pills, just follow the instructions in the box.

I am confused if i am still safe and or is it still ok that the 72 hours already exceeded.

I am just paranoid that i am just getting the side effects of getting off the pill thats why i get the periods.
