The sooner you take it, the more effective it is. Leedoz 72 Tablet significantly reduces your chances of becoming pregnant if used within 72 hours (3 days) after unprotected sex or contraceptive failure.
Q. Can I take Leedoz 72 Tablet during breastfeeding?
Yes, it is safe during breastfeeding. It is unlikely to cause any significant effect on milk quantity that can affect the infant adversely.
Q. How often can I use Leedoz 72 Tablet?
It can be taken more than once a month, but it is advised only for emergency contraception. Keep using regular contraception like condoms, regular birth control pills, IUDs, etc., to avoid unwanted pregnancy.
Q. Is a pregnancy test required after taking Leedoz 72 Tablet?
Although Leedoz 72 Tablet significantly reduces your chances of pregnancy, if your periods are delayed by more than a week, a pregnancy test is recommended. However, if you decide to continue the pregnancy, you may do so, as Leedoz 72 Tablet does not work if pregnancy has already been established. It will not cause harm to the foetus.
Q. Can Leedoz 72 Tablet be taken for regular birth control?
No, it is not indicated for regular birth control. It is used only as an emergency measure after unprotected sex or contraceptive failure.
Q. Can Leedoz 72 Tablet protect against sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and HIV/AIDS?
No, it does not offer any protection from HIV/AIDS or other STDs. You can use condoms to protect yourself from STDs and HIV/AIDS.
Q. What is the difference between “emergency contraceptive pill” and “abortion pill”?
Pregnancy starts once the fertilized egg attaches to the lining of the uterus (womb). Abortion pills contain medicine, which hinders the development of a pregnancy after it has occurred and also alters the character of the womb lining in a way that the fertilized egg gets detached, hence causing abortion. On the other hand, emergency contraceptive pills like Leedoz 72 Tablet contain female hormones which delay the release of the egg or prevent the movement of sperm towards the egg. This prevents fertilization and hence pregnancy. Leedoz 72 Tablet does not have any effect on a fertilized egg and hence does not cause abortion.
Q. Is Leedoz 72 Tablet effective if frequent acts of intercourse have occurred in a short duration of time?
Yes. It is effective if you have had several acts of intercourse in a short span of time. However, these acts must occur within 72 hours before taking Leedoz 72 Tablet. Also, since there is a chance of unintended pregnancy after frequent acts of unprotected sex in the same cycle, it is advisable to use a barrier contraceptive method (e.g., condom) until the next period, even after using Leedoz 72 Tablet.
