A member asked:

If the emergency contraceptive or morning after pill doesn't prevent pregnancy?

See your doctor: Emergency contraception is an option to prevent unintended pregnancy. It is available through a pharmacy, and doesn't require a prescription if you are over 18 years old. If you take this medication and a pregnancy is not prevented, you should see your healthcare provider. Ec doesn't harm a developing pregnancy, but you will want to discuss all of your options for the pregnancy.

Morning after: Morning after pill doesn't prevent pregnancy 100%, you still have about 27% chance to get pregnant.
