Anonymous: Is it true that emergency contraception is hormonally unhealthy? I heard that girls shouldn't take it more than three times in a lifetime.

Hi anon,

That is completely false. Emergency contraception contains the same hormones that are in other forms of hormonal contraception. While it is not recommended to be used as a regular form of birth control, a person can take emergency contraception as many times as they need to throughout their life without any health risks.
