Patients need emergency contraception (EC) when their contraceptive method has failed, they have used their contraceptive method inconsistently, or they did not use a method while sexually active. EC needs arise quickly and providers need to be able to respond in kind. Here you will find resources to assist providers and administrative staff in providing EC as soon as possible, including tools to assist patients in selecting which form of EC is right for them.
