I don't think I'm on the Minipill...I'm on Microgynon 50. I get my period when I start taking the sugar pills for a week.
I am not sure this is actually the Minipill or not, I don't think so...

Actually, I think Microgynon 50 does the same thing

MICROGYNON 50ED is an oral contraceptive, commonly known as a "Birth Control Pill" or "The Pill" that has been prescribed to prevent you from getting pregnant. MICROGYNON 50ED prevents pregnancy in several ways:

* inhibiting the egg release by stopping it maturing;
* changing the cervical mucus consistency making it difficult for the sperm to reach the egg;
* changing the lining of the uterus making it less suitable for implantation.
so there would be a <1% chance of this occuring, but it is still a possibility.

No, this is not the morning after pill. This is the pill you take everyday (you have to take it at least 30 days in a row before having sex)

The mini-pill - to which you were referring - is not the morning after pill, no. As you say, it is the pill that you take regularly as a contraceptive.

BUT the pill that you take twice within 48 hours of unprotected sex is known as the `morning after pill'. No matter what brand it is. That's what we call it here. It's a figurative term and doesn't apply to one specific brand of oral contraceptive. There are several different types.

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...

Life exists in sperm cells and it exists in egg cells. It exists in spores and it exists in pollen. It exists in the heart removed from a recently dead person and in any other organ from a recently dead person and it continues to exist in the person who recieves that organ and nourishes it within their body and subsequently lives a full and productive life after having received this gift.

Life is everywhere.

That is not the question of interest here, though.

There are actually some people who believe masturbation is murder, because they believe the sperm to be 'potential human life'.

I'd like to wonder what everyone thinks of this.
