Give the morning-after pill to those who needs it.

It’s been one year since the fall of Roe v. Wade, and we’re not going anywhere.

Donate emergency contraception to those who need it

One year since the fall of Roe

One year ago, in response to the fall of Roe v. Wade, we launched our morning-after pill, Restart™, a safe and effective way to prevent pregnancy before it happens.

To make Restart™ more accessible, we launched the Restart™ Donation Bank, a place for people to donate the morning-after pill, as well as request a dose for free — no questions asked. 

To date, we’ve donated more than 16,000 doses of the morning-after pill, but we’re not done yet.

The conversations about the overturn of Roe v. Wade may have dwindled but the problem has only become more severe.

Since June 2022: 

• 13 states have completely banned abortions with very limited exceptions. 

• 14 more states have banned abortions at anywhere from 6-24 weeks and later.

• Legislators attempted to ban the abortion pill.

Here’s what you can do: 

1. Buy Restart™ for use now or to save for later. 

2. Sign up to request a free dose of Restart™ if the cost is not in your budget.

3. Donate to the Restart™ Donation Bank to provide emergency contraception to someone in need.

The total number of Restart™ donations is steadily growing and is not the maximum amount of donations received.

Our Donation Bank has helped provide thousands of free doses of our new emergency contraceptive pill Restart™ to those in need. This progress bar above represents the number of doses requested versus total amount donated. As we receive more donations, we will be able to help expand access to essential emergency contraception across the U.S.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is Restart™?

    Restart™ is an emergency contraceptive pill (also known as the morning-after pill) that can reduce your chances of getting pregnant after unprotected sex. If taken within 72 hours, Restart™ can significantly reduce your risk of pregnancy. Restart™ is a safe and easy way to prevent pregnancy without a prescription or having to go to the drugstore. You can use Restart™ whenever you need it without impacting your ability to get pregnant in the future.

  • How do I sign up to get a free dose of Restart™?

    We believe that everyone should have access to reproductive care, no matter their financial circumstances. If access is compromised where you live or the retail cost of Restart™ is out of reach for you, you can join the waitlist to request a dose of Restart™ free of charge here. Made possible by the Restart™ Donation Bank, Stix has already provided over 8,000 free doses of our emergency contraception at no cost.

  • Is there a weight limit for Restart™?

    The TL;DR is that it’s inconclusive, but if you weigh over 165 lbs we recommend speaking with your primary care provider. Here’s what we know:

    The FDA states that there are no concerns that would prevent someone from using levonorgestrel emergency contraceptives safely — regardless of how much they weigh. When emergency contraception is taken within 72 hours (3 days) after unprotected sex or birth control failure, it can significantly decrease your chances of pregnancy by nearly 90%. However, there are some studies that suggest efficacy may decrease as body weight and BMI increase. If you weigh over 165 lbs or have a BMI over 25, the morning-after pill available without a prescription may not be as effective, and you may want to consider the prescription morning-after pill, ella®, or the copper IUD. If you have concerns about whether Restart™ is right for you, reach out to your primary care provider. While everyone — at any weight — should be able to use the morning-after pill and trust that it will work effectively, we know that this is not the reality. As a team, we’re committed to advocating for accessible emergency contraception for all and will work to offer better options to our customers as they become available. We urge the FDA to approve a higher dose of emergency contraception that is effective for all bodies, regardless of size.

  • Are there any side effects when taking Restart™?

    Side effects may include changes in your period flow (heavier or lighter bleeding) or timing (your next period may be early or late), nausea, lower stomach pain, tiredness, headache, dizziness, and breast tenderness.
