What Levonorgestrel is
Levonorgestrel is a single-dose emergency contraceptive designed for occasional use when your usual contraception was not used or may have failed.
When to take it (timing matters)
Take Levonorgestrel as soon as possible after unprotected intercourse. It is intended for use within 12 to 72 hours (3 days). The sooner it is taken, the more effective it is likely to be.
How it works
