Publicity Needs of Emergency Contraception Methods

Abstract

The usage of Emergency contraception is limited in almost every country. Lack of information of service provider, lack of emergency contraception in routine consultancy services in family planning polyclinics, lowness of information level among potential users comprises the main blocks in effective usage of emergency contraception. Emergency contraception consultancy is not done routinely in family planning consultancy services in Turkey. It is thought that service takers and service providers do not have enough information in this respect. The emergency contraception is an inexpensive and effective method of preventing unwanted pregnancies and it reduces emotional and physical trauma that could arise because of unwanted pregnancies in women. The number of unwanted pregnancies can be decreased by informing women and service providers adequately about emergency contraception. An emergency contraception consultancy should be given to each woman during sexual health, family planning consultancy, and the way to get this method should be explained. The protectiveness, efficiency, advantages and risks should be explained while advertising emergency contraception methods to women and it should be emphasized that the emergency contraception methods should not be considered as permanently usable methods, it prevents pregnancy before it occurs, it does not terminate pregnancy, it is not abortive.
