Morning After Hotline: Eliminate A Pregnancy Within Three Days After Unprotected Intercourse

When all else fails, the Emergency Contraceptive Pills (ECP) taken within 72 hours after having unprotected intercourse, with a second dose 12 hours after the first, increases your chances of NOT getting pregnant by 75%. The hotline describes the procedures and will direct you to four local offices and clinics that offer these pills. For women who already have birth control pills, the clinic will instruct her on how to use them correctly as emergency contraception. If you don’t already have pills, you can get a prescription for emergency contraception. Call the hotline operated by the Office of Population Research at Princeton University at 800-584-9911; {http://opr.princeton.edu/ec/}.
