Question
- When discussing emergency contraception with someone – what particular timing/date would a doctor or nurse ask about?
Answer
- The date of: “first day of their last period”
This is so the medical professionals can understand if an egg has likely been released, in which case the emergency contraceptive pill would not be effective and another type of emergency contraception is needed.
