Avoid pregnancy

Hi, what are the ways to prevent or not to continue my pregnancy? I have unprotected sexual intercourse yesterday because the condom was broke and I'm worried about it. Are there any ways to solve this problem? Or any suggestion just not to continue my pregnancy, or medicines that i will take

At minimum two weeks since you last had sex. Remember to use first morning urine and it's recommended to use a pink dye test as well. If it comes up negative, wait a week or two and retest.

Not much of anything really. You can take the EC and then it's just a waiting game. As of right not, you're not even pregnant as it would take at least 7 days or more before the egg would implant.

As for beyond this, and it's nothing personal, I wouldn't share how to self abort naming because I don't believe in it and if done wrong can kill the mother as well. You also never want to just start taking random pills. In all likelyhood all that would do is make you sick.

It might help, but EC do fail and it is still possible to become pregnant on them no matter how soon they are used.

See a doctor in a few weeks. When you're there, get on birth control. There are few things you can take OTC, and I doubt many women (if any on this particular forum) will tell you ways to self-abort.

As of now there is no evidence you will even become pregnant, so you might not have to do anything.

you may not be pregnant, wait until your period is due. you could take the morning after pill, this late it may not be as effective. only way to prevent pregnancy is using protection. lesson learnt for next time, if you are not ready to become a parent do not have unprotected sex
