What do you do if you forget or it fails?
If your contraception has failed or if you did not use contraception, there are still some steps you can take to help prevent an unwanted pregnancy.
These methods are more effective the sooner they are used, so it's important to act quickly.
- Use the emergency contraceptive ('morning after') pill
- Have the Emergency IUD fitted
- Do a pregnancy test
Remember;
If you didn’t use a condom or have experienced condom failure, you may want to visit your sexual health clinic for an STI check-up. Find the nearest clinic here in our clinic finder(Link)
