Does The Next Choice Pill With Levonorgestrel Do Anything To Prevent Implantation Or Affect The Uterine Wall?

Posted on Wed, 17 Jul 2013

Question: Hello Doctor -

I was the person who asked about the Next Choice One Dose after condom slippage. Thank you for you answer - it helps a lot. I meant to ask a follow up however, but I closed the question. Does the Next Choice pill with levonorgestrel do anything to prevent implantation or affect the uterine wall?

Thanks

Hi again,
Thanks for writing back.
Its nice hearing from you again, and thanks for the appreciation.
Levonorgestrel emergency contraceptive pills do NOT affect implantation or affect the uterine wall.
Please go through the following link , it would answer a great deal of your questions related to emergency contraception, and in language that is not too technical.

All the best.
