I wasn't aware we even called it the 'Minipill' anymore. I asked my mum if I could go on it (this was about three years ago) and she said they don't exist anymore. I thought they were just referred to by a different name.

I also wasn't aware that the MAP is to be taken twice within 48 hours, I was sure it was only once within the first 72 hours of unprotected sex...
