Contraception
Emergency contraception
If you’ve had unprotected intercourse and are concerned about the possibility of an unintended pregnancy, come to UHS for emergency contraception (EC). The earlier EC is taken, the more effective it is.
Plan B One-Step, one type of EC, is the most commonly offered form of EC at UHS. To help prevent unintended pregnancy, take a single dose of Plan B One-Step within three days, or 72 hours, after unprotected sex or contraceptive failure.
Women 17 and over may obtain Plan B without a prescription; it's available with a prescription for women 16 and younger. Plan B is available at Walk-in Care, as an anticipatory prescription from your provider, and from the UHS Pharmacy.
Condoms & spermicide
The UHS Pharmacy stocks spermicides, and a wide range of condoms, some priced as low as 3 for $1. Stop in, or save time by downloading and completing an order form.
Bring the completed form with you to the UHS Pharmacy.
