Post Morning After Pill

[queenofmean]

I was given permission to go ahead and have the medication for my foot (Terbinafine) but I’d had unprotected sex over the weekend and it was ovulation time. So consequently I had to have the Morning After Pill (x2)

Today I’m really crampy and feeling nauseous. I can’t rememeber reading if this is normal or not and why did I need to have 2 to be taken immediately? I’ve only ever needed one in the past?

Those are normal side effects, Queenie. I don't know why two... but that is likely to increase the side effects too. Hopefully it will settle soon.

The effects you describe aren't uncommon Queenie.

[queenofmean]

Thank you Pixie. The sicky feeling I can deal with the cramps - not so much. Doesn’t help I’m at work.

Thank you - maybe Sqad will know why I needed 2.

[queenofmean]

Thank you Mamya just missed you there xx

Were they both the same? One wasn't anti-sickness or anything? Take some ibuprofen maybe, if you are in pain xx

[queenofmean]

Yes was told to take 2 immediately. So I did. I’m also on Terbinafine for my foot.

I’ve got some paracetamol so will take that. Dad has finished the ibuprofen.

Ok. Hope it eases off soon xx

[queenofmean]

Me too - would be nice xx

[ummmm]

Why are you having unprotected sex?

[queenofmean]

Because we want to try for a baby Ummm.

I wasn’t expecting to get the go ahead for the meds for my foot this soon so was happy enough to wait if needed.

[ummmm]

So why are you taking the morning after pill?

[pixie374]

The medication for your foot is safe in pregnancy, Queenie.

[queenofmean]

Because I’ve been put on medication for my foot that requires me to not be pregnant.

[queenofmean]

I was told it wasn’t Pixie

[Mamyalynne]

Terbinafine is allowed during pregnancy.

[queenofmean]

It could be because of my diabetes though. They are super picky. It was a struggle to get someone to give me the Terbinafine in the first place.

[pixie374]

It's fine.

[ummmm]

Most medication is safe in pregnancy. They might just change the dose.

[Mamyalynne]

Still, you can't go back - only forwards , hope it helps the foot and your cramps clear soon.x
