Emergency contraception (EC), or emergency postcoital contraception, are birth control measures that may be used after sexual intercourse to prevent pregnancy.
Forms of EC include:
Emergency contraceptive pills (ECPs) (sometimes referred to as emergency hormonal contraception (EHC)) may contain higher doses of the same hormones (estrogens, progestins, or both) found in regular combined oral contraceptive pills. Taken after unprotected sexual intercourse or contraceptive failure, such higher doses may prevent pregnancy from occurring.
An emergency is a situation that poses an immediate risk to health, life, property, or environment. Most emergencies require urgent intervention to prevent a worsening of the situation, although in some situations, mitigation may not be possible and agencies may only be able to offer palliative care for the aftermath.
While some emergencies are self-evident (such as a natural disaster that threatens many lives), many smaller incidents require that an observer (or affected party) decide whether it qualifies as an emergency. The precise definition of an emergency, the agencies involved and the procedures used, vary by jurisdiction, and this is usually set by the government, whose agencies (emergency services) are responsible for emergency planning and management.
An incident, to be an emergency, conforms to one or more of the following: if it:
Plan B may refer to:
Birth control, also known as contraception and fertility control, are methods or devices used to prevent pregnancy. Planning, provision and use of birth control is called family planning. Birth control methods have been used since ancient times, but effective and safe methods only became available in the 20th century. Some cultures limit or discourage access to birth control because they consider it to be morally, religiously, or politically undesirable.
The most effective methods of birth control are sterilization by means of vasectomy in males and tubal ligation in females, intrauterine devices (IUDs), and implantable contraceptives. This is followed by a number of hormonal contraceptives including oral pills, patches, vaginal rings, and injections. Less effective methods include barriers such as condoms, diaphragms and contraceptive sponge and fertility awareness methods. The least effective methods are spermicides and withdrawal by the male before ejaculation. Sterilization, while highly effective, is not usually reversible; all other methods are reversible, most immediately upon stopping them.Safe sex, such as the use of male or female condoms, can also help prevent sexually transmitted infections.Emergency contraceptives can prevent pregnancy in the few days after unprotected sex. Some regard sexual abstinence as birth control, but abstinence-only sex education may increase teen pregnancies when offered without contraceptive education, due to non-compliance.
Tru Calling is a supernatural drama that aired on the Fox Network. The series premiered on October 30, 2003, and ran for two seasons before it was cancelled during its second season. The twenty-fifth episode, "Enough", on April 21, 2005 was the final episode to be shown by Fox. Season two premiered in New Zealand on the TV3 network on February 4, 2005 and ended on March 11, 2005. Season two premiered in the United States on March 31, 2005 and five episodes were shown. The final episode was never aired on Fox due to its Christmas theme and tentative April airdate, though it was shown on the Sci Fi Channel during a marathon on January 21, 2008. The series ran for a total of 26 episodes.
The series starred Eliza Dushku as Tru Davies, a medical school student who takes a job at the city morgue when her internship falls through. When the corpse of a murdered woman seems to awaken and asks for her help, Tru discovers that she has the incredible power to relive the day before a wrongful death occurs in order to try to prevent that death. Over the course of the series, Tru struggles to keep her secret, juggle her responsibilities with her complicated personal life, and learn to control her power.

This makes it difficult to pin-point the fertile days and assess the risk of becoming pregnant. As a consequence, it is always -- during the entire cycle --absolutely necessary to use contraceptives in order to make sure sexual intercourse does not lead to unintended pregnancy.

The emergency contraceptive pill is effective in preventing pregnancy in almost 95% of the cases. However no amount of the emergency contraceptive pill is fool proof. It does carry along with it its own drawbacks and possibility of having a pregnancy is still there. The pill is effective only if it is taken within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse.

A lot of people have questions about emergency contraception, like “What is it?” and “How effective is it?” and also “What are the side effects commonly associated with its use?” Emergency contraception is used after a couple has had unprotected intercourse and some times when its use may be appropriate include if a condom breaks or if a cervical diaphragm moves out of place or maybe a girl is forced to have unprotected sex. Those are all perfectly legitimate times when this may help prevent pregnancy. Emergency contraceptive pills are also known as the “Morning After” pill and the name’s a little deceiving because you don’t need to wait until the morning after. In fact, they’re most effective if they’re taken as soon as possible after the couple has intercourse. For sure, they need to be ...

Everyone is supposed to be able to pick up emergency contraception on the shelf, pay for it at the cash register, and take it home without any funny business. In fact, a common method of emergency contraception was approved for sale with no restrictions for age or gender more than four years ago. And while some stores are doing the right thing, too many others require customers to jump through unnecessary and insulting hoops. At our next Act and Learn webinar, Why Are Stores Making Emergency Contraception Hard to Get?, we’ll discuss just what the rules are for purchasing emergency contraception, what barriers retailers are putting in place, and what action steps you can take to hold your local stores accountable for stocking emergency contraception on the shelf.

Around the world, many women buy contraceptives and other health products from the private commercial sector, directly from pharmacies and drug vendors. The commercial sector is potentially an important contributor to the FP2020 goals of reaching 120 million new contraceptive users. Yet relatively little is known about how the private commercial sector is meeting women’s needs for contraceptive services. What is the price of unsubsidized (not socially marketed) private sector products? Are these products affordable, and are there factors that influence the price charged to women? Funded by the RHSC Innovation Fund through the Market Development Approaches working group, the International Consortium for Emergency Contraception fielded an online survey on the price of emergency contracept...
