The morning-after pill, which doctors call "post-coital contraception" and many relieved women call "a godsend" is now available to UBC women. The pill is actually a course of 10 pills, given twice a day for five days. It acts to prevent a fertilized egg from implanting on the uterine NOW TWO LOCATIONS wall, possibly by making it pass through the uterus too fast to implant. For this reason it is often referred to as an abortifacient FOR (abortion-causer). If you have intercourse without the protection of any contraceptive method, or the condom breaks, or if you are raped, previously you had a very unhappy couple of weeks of waiting. Now ^fjeep if you get to a doctor, or the University Health Service in the Wesbrook building, within 72 yours, the chances are excellent that you will not become pregnant. In a recent study, of 1,000 women given the pills, none became pregnant although 89 per cent had used no contraception. The pills are diethylstilbestrol, a synthetic estrogen. You get 25 milligrams in all, which is quite a jolt of hormones. Don't count on using them every week. When you go to the doctor, he will urge you to use proper contraaception from then on. Unisex Fashions About one-third of women taking the course of pills have no side reaction at all. Fourteen per cent get a bit of nausea on the first day. Another 14 per cent get vomiting as well. The rest get intermittent nausea and/or vomiting for one up to five days, plus a few other side effects: headache, vaginal spotting, 202 CARRALL STREET cramps and so on. In general, side effects are mild for most people. Remember, the pills will probably not be effective if started later than 72 hours after the unprotected intercourse. This is an GASTOWN emergency treatment which cannot be recommended for continual use. Do not buy any "morning-after pills" from underground AND sources. These are usually dangerous and ineffective. Diethylstilbestrol is available only from qualified phsysicians. Several days of treatment will be requrired. 834 GRANVILLE When your period comes, it may be different from the usual: lighter or heavier flow, a bit earlier or later, or possibly more than a week late. So if it's not right on time, don't rush out and do anything THEATRE ROW 688-4822 desperate: it will probably come eventually. And next time, use a high-quality condom.
