**********************************************************
Emergency contraception (EC) is a special dose of ordinary birth control pills which can prevent pregnancy if taken within five days after unprotected sex, sexual assault, or contraceptive failure. EC can only prevent pregnancy, and will have no effect on an established pregnancy. EC is most effective the sooner it is taken, but because EC currently requires a doctor's visit and prescription, many women cannot afford the medication or cannot get a prescription in time for it to be effective. Many women choose to keep EC on hand as a back-up just in case they would ever need to use it.
So come out on Wednesday, May 11th and get your FREE box of Plan B !
