Dr. Josefina Vázquez is an experienced physician with over three years in emergency medicine, reanimation, and specialized transport.

Norlevo, also known as Levonelle, is an emergency contraceptive pill (ECP) designed to prevent pregnancy after unprotected sexual intercourse or contraceptive failure (e.g., broken condom or missed pill). It contains levonorgestrel, a synthetic progestogen hormone that mimics the body’s natural progesterone.

Norlevo works primarily by delaying or inhibiting ovulation, which means it prevents the release of an egg from the ovary. Without an egg, fertilization cannot occur. It may also alter the cervical mucus and endometrial lining, making it harder for sperm to reach an egg or for a fertilized egg to implant, although this is a secondary mechanism and less well established.

It is most effective when taken as soon as possible, ideally within 12 hours, but it can be taken up to 72 hours (3 days) after unprotected sex. Its effectiveness diminishes the longer the delay.

Norlevo does not terminate an existing pregnancy and is not intended for regular contraceptive use. It is not effective if ovulation has already occurred. It also does not protect against STIs.

Benefits include being widely accessible, easy to use, and well tolerated, especially when taken promptly. Side effects are generally mild and temporary, such as nausea, headache, breast tenderness, dizziness, or changes in the menstrual cycle.
