19. I understand that:

• You must take the emergency contraceptive pill as soon as possible to have the best chance of it working
• Do a pregnancy test 3 weeks after unprotected sex to be sure you are not pregnant
• It is advisable to use a regular form of contraception to prevent future risk of pregnancy by completing our online assessment for oral contraception
• The emergency contraception is an effective way of making sure you do not become pregnant after unprotected sex or contraception failures. Emergency contraception does not prevent a pregnancy in every instance. It is NOT as effective as regular contraceptives and therefore acknowledge that I must see my doctor to discuss further.
• The Emergency contraception does NOT protect against sexually transmitted infections.
• The copper intrauterine device (IUD) is the most effective method to prevent pregnancy after unprotected sex and can be obtained by speaking to your GP doctor or a family planning clinic.
• Taking emergency contraception may affect the date of your next period. If your period is more than 5 days late after taking Levonelle/ Levonorgestrel or 7 days late after taking ellaOne please contact a healthcare professional as you may be pregnant.
• If I vomit within 3 hours of taking the pill then it may not have absorbed into my system and I should seek the help of my doctor.
• We try our best to help our patients, but sometimes our online platform is not able to meet all your needs. Please see your GP or go to a sexual health clinic if you:
