    Description

    ellaOne هو شكل من أشكال منع الحمل الطارئ ، يستخدم لمنع الحمل بعد ممارسة الجنس غير المحمي.

    يُعرف هذا العلاج بجرعة واحدة باسم "الصباح التالي للحبوب" ، وهو فعال بنسبة 98٪ عند استخدامه لمدة تصل إلى خمسة أيام بعد الجماع. أنا لا أعمل إذا كنت حاملا بالفعل. لا ينبغي استخدام ellaOne كوسيلة لمنع الحمل العادية ولن تحميك من الأمراض المنقولة جنسياً.

    Directions

    Taking ellaOne is simple and straightforward. Just one tablet, taken orally, can provide the protection you seek. It is advisable to consume the tablet as soon as possible after unprotected intercourse. You can take it at any time during your menstrual cycle, regardless of the time of day or meal. If vomiting occurs within 3 hours after ingestion, it is recommended to take another tablet. It is important to note that taking the tablet after unprotected sex does not prevent future pregnancies caused by unprotected intercourse.

    Ingredients

    ellaOne's active ingredient, ulipristal acetate, modifies the natural hormone progesterone's activity, which is essential for ovulation. By postponing ovulation, the tablet works effectively to prevent pregnancy from starting. It is vital to understand that emergency contraception is not foolproof; it is estimated that around 2 out of 100 women who take this medicine may still become pregnant.

    Side effects

    As with any medicine, ellaOne may cause side effects in some individuals. Common side effects may include nausea, abdominal pain, vomiting, and breast tenderness. It's important to remember that these symptoms can also be indicative of pregnancy. Uncommon side effects such as diarrhea, headache, mood swings, and fatigue are also possible. Rare side effects include genital pain, dizziness, allergic reactions, and more. If you experience any unusual symptoms, it's recommended to consult your healthcare professional.

    Warnings

    Prior to taking ellaOne, it's important to consider certain factors. If you suspect you might be pregnant or are experiencing pregnancy symptoms, consult a healthcare professional before using the tablet. The tablet's effectiveness may be impacted by certain medications, such as those used for epilepsy, tuberculosis, HIV treatment, fungal infections, and herbal remedies containing St John's wort. If you have concerns about potential interactions, be sure to discuss them with your healthcare provider.
