About me:
NEED a little EC – GET IT GURL! ................
Emergency contraception (EC), also known as the "morning-after pill” or Plan B can be taken up to 5 days after unprotected sex to prevent pregnancy.
NEED SOME - - - - - Women and men 18 and older can now get EC without a prescription. AND, if you're 17 or younger (or don't have ID to show you're 18), you can get EC in many pharmacies nationwide. And in 9 states: AK, CA, HI, MA, ME, NH, NM, VT, WA directly from a specially-trained pharmacist, without an advance prescription, no matter how old you are!
Find out where your closest pharmacy is TODAY - www.EC-Help.org or call 1-800-521-5211.
Click here for more information.
AND to make it easier (and less embarrassing) - Use the Client Confidentiality Card (the C-Card).
The C-Card includes a message for pharmacists that can be torn off and handed to a pharmacist to request EC non-verbally in a crowded pharmacy. The message says, "Dear Pharmacist, I would like to obtain emergency contraception. Please help me learn about this important back up birth control method in a confidential way. Thank you." Simply tear off the bottom and give the pharmacist the bottom half of the card to let the pharmacist know you want EC.
ITS EASY..
Pharmacy Access Partnership, a center of the Pacific Institute for Women's Health
To check out the card or order some for yourself, go to www.pharmacyaccess.org. OR go to www.EC-Help.org to find out where to go to get EC.

Planned Parenthood wants to help you Back up your Birth Control!
Emergency Contraception, "the Morning-After Pill," or Plan B, can be taken up to 120 hours after intercourse, but it is most effective if taken within 24 hours. So why not always keep Emergency Contraception on hand and help prevent an unplanned pregnancy?
Emergency Contraception can be purchased at Planned Parenthood at affordable prices and without appointment or prescription for clients 18 and older. EC is available at all three of Planned Parenthood of NYC's health centers.
