OPINION: Campus girls should stop misusing P2

Postinor-2 commonly known as P2 has for years been an emergency contraceptive pill for preventing unwanted pregnancies but now considered a painkiller especially by campus girls. The tablet prevents pregnancy when used within 72 hours of unprotected sex.

The magic tablet will, however, not prevent you from contracting sexually transmitted diseases’ reads a disclaimer on the pills package but despite this, many campus girls are not bothered by the risks involved in unprotected sex as long as they are not getting pregnant and are now popping them faster than a chicken swallowing grains.
