ella, oh ella...

ella oh ella…

I already proclaimed my excitation and affection for this new lil’ thing to keep in the underwear drawer for an oops! moment, but started wondering – what exactly IS the difference between ella and Next Choice and Plan B One-Step? Turns out it’s all in the ingredients list…

ella contains ulipristal acetate, while Plan B One-Step and Next Choice are  made of a synthetic progestin called levonorgestrel. What does all this med- speak basically mean? They both work up to 5 days after unprotected sex, can be taken as many times as needed, and are available for free, and confidentially, from The Teen Clinic Nearest You. Plus, its kinda sexy to have it in your underwear drawer – less stress in the whole safe sex world!
