If on the 6th day of the cycle I had unprotected sex, about 12 hours later I took the Escapelle tablet and even later Ellaone, is there a possibility that these two pills may not work?

Good morning: If on the 6th day of the cycle I had unprotected sex and about 12 hours later I took an escapelle pill and even later Ellaone because I was very afraid that it would not work, is there a possibility that if I took these two pills, they may not work?

"I understand that escapelle does not reduce the effectiveness of the Vixpo contraceptive pill? As is the case with the Ellaone tablet" Yes, after taking Escapelle you can continue to use Vixpo tablets and they retain their effectiveness. "After escapelle, if there are 10 days left until the expected menstruation, can you get brown spotting? Is it rather a symptom of pregnancy? Escapelle taken 3-4 hours after intercourse, on the 2nd day of fertile days." Escapelle has been taken correctly, while taking emergency contraception may be associated with cycle disorders such as spotting or postponing the date of menstruation. In case of a significant delay of the period, a pregnancy test should be performed.

After escapelle, if there are 10 days left until the expected menstruation, is it possible to get brown spotting? Is it rather a symptom of pregnancy? Escapelle taken 3-4 hours after intercourse, on the 2nd day of fertile days.

I understand this means that escapelle does not reduce the effectiveness of the Vixpo contraceptive pill? As is the case with Ellaone

According to the leaflet: "The use of levonorgestrel (Escapelle) is not a contraindication to the continued use of regular hormonal contraception."

I understand thank you very much for the information. And yet I have a question whether it applies the same to the tablet after escapelle? Or how I take Vixpo birth control pills . Can Escapelle just weaken Vixpo birth control pills?

Yes, contraceptive efficacy may be reduced. Below I paste the information contained in the summary of product characteristics of Ellaone: "Although taking ellaOne is not a contraindication for the continuation of permanent hormonal contraception, this product may reduce its contraceptive effect. Therefore, after the use of emergency contraception, until the start of the next menstrual cycle during subsequent sexual intercourse, it is recommended to protect by a trustworthy mechanical method. If a woman wishes to start hormonal contraception as a permanent method of contraception, she can do so immediately after using ellaOne, but she should use a reliable mechanical method for the next menstrual cycle."

Some birth control pills ? I mean? I take Vixpo birth control pills. Can ellaone weaken Vixpo birth control pills?

Escapelle and Ellaone should not be combined - Ellaone may weaken the effect of preparations containing levonorgestrel (i.e. Escapelle and some contraceptive pills). In this situation, it is difficult to assess to what extent the effectiveness of both preparations could have been reduced. I recommend articles: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jakie-leki-oslabiaja-skutecznosc-antykoncepcji https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/tabletka-po-czyli-antykoncepcja-awaryjna

User questions and answers that provide feedback about products are not verified for the purchase or use of the product. Companies often order anonymous comments to form positive opinions about their products, or negative ones about competitors. Therefore, be guided by the information in the pharmacists' responses in the first place.
