I took the morning after pill as I had unprotected sex with a long term partner and wasn’t on any contraception at the time.
It was in the afternoon around November and I was 23. I got it from the chemist. It was a pretty normal experience. I had to be assessed by a chemist and I was a bit scared as I was worried about fertility and side effects, but I didn’t experience any problems in the end. I don’t think I know of anyone being judged over taking the morning after pill.
