I was indecisive about all the day after pills. Eventually this one convinced me because it’s cheaper than plan b and it’s the same ingredients.

Works but caution!

Worked for me, but I ended up with an extremely bad period for several months after. My normal flow was maybe heavy (super plus tampon needed) maybe for 2 days at max, but once taking this, I was bleeding heavily and through pads. It took me about 3 months to get back to somewhat normal. But… it worked - use at your own discretion.

Plan B and brand My Way don’t give you the side effects this pill does. Bloating for over a week and spotting still going. HORRIBLE. Not worth saving a few dollars, just get a plan B
