Emergency contraception (EC) can prevent up to over 95% of pregnancies when taken within 5 days after intercourse.
EC can be used in the following situations: unprotected intercourse, concerns about possible contraceptive failure, incorrect use of contraceptives, and sexual assault if without contraception coverage.
Methods of emergency contraception are the copper-bearing intrauterine devices (IUDs) and the emergency contraceptive pills (ECPs).
A copper-bearing IUD is the most effective form of emergency contraception available.
The emergency contraceptive pill regimens recommended by WHO are ulipristal acetate, levonorgestrel, or combined oral contraceptives (COCs) consisting of ethinyl estradiol plus levonorgestrel.

Let’s talk about the potential dangers associated with taking birth control pills.

Increased risks associated with birth control pills:
• Heart attacks
• High blood pressure
• Stroke
• Blood clots
• Breast cancer
• Dementia
• Depression
• Acne
• Mood swings
• Lupus
• Weight gain
• A deficiency in zinc and selenium
• Melasma
• An alteration of the microbiome

Birth control pills shut down the production of estrogen and progesterone, which can have long-term effects on your health. It may even affect longevity.

However, there is a hormone-free option that is FDA cleared and is 93-99% effective, depending on how well it’s implemented. This form of birth control is called Natural Cycles, and it doesn’t involve any medication whatsoever.

If you’ve been on birth control pills or decide to continue taking birth control pills, it may be beneficial to do things to counter some of the chemicals in your liver.

You can do this by consuming more cruciferous and fermented vegetables. You may also want to take zinc, selenium, B12, magnesium, and a good probiotic.
