About Emergency Contraception
Emergency contraception is used to prevent pregnancy after unprotected sex or contraceptive failure. Options include morning-after pills and, in certain cases, intrauterine devices (IUDs). Effectiveness depends on timing, with earlier use providing greater protection.
Consulting a prescriber ensures you receive the safest and most appropriate treatment based on your medical history, timing, and needs.
