A female United Kingdom age 22-25, anonymous writes:

about two weeks ago I went to the clinic to get the morning after pill, it was really late (64 hours) and a couple of days ago at night I had REALLY bad cramps! :( And I had them again this morning! :( Is there something really wrong with me? My periods aren't always the same time so I can't even judge that! :( A nurse ages ago said that at the worst case the pill causes the baby to be born outside the womb! Is this happening to me? If this happens could you abort it?

I'm completely panicking! :(

Tisha-1 agony auntI would tell you to go see the doctor if you are panicking. First of all, here we are scaring you with talk about tubal pregnancies (which is actually life-threatening if not dealt with) and we have no idea what's happening inside you. You need to talk to your doctor about this. We are a bunch of strangers on the internet who cannot examine you. Even if we were a pack of doctors with degrees and training, we STILL couldn't tell you what was going on because we can't examine you.

For the record, tubal pregnancies MUST be terminated, the embryo has implanted inside the Fallopian tube in this case and the tube simply cannot sustain a pregnancy without rupturing. And it is NOT like a 'normal' abortion.

Sweetie. Go see your doctor. Please, be sensible here. Then you can stop panicking and get the care you need. Okay?

Ummm no, I don't think that those are normal abortions. Go to the doctor so you can quit freaking out. That lady just scared you, but go check just to put your mind at ease and make sure everything is okay.

Okay, so if it is a tubal pregnancy it's just like normal abortion? I am against it but in extreme cases like this I'm thinking of it. I won't need an operation or anything?

I think she's talking about a tubal pregnancy? No, dear. Cramping can just be implantation cramps which are perfectly normal. Yes, they are sharp cramps. It's just the egg imbedding itself into the lining of the uterus. Although the tubal pregnancy can happen, I don't think you should freak out so much. If it is a tubal pregnancy, yes you would have to abort it, because your tube would rupture and you would die.
