Emergency contraception is used to prevent pregnancy in emergency situations following unprotected or underprotected intercourse. It is most effective if taken with five days of unprotected or underprotected sex. There are multiple emergency contraception options that are dosed based on your BMI (current height and weight).

Please call 773-834-9355 and speak with a nurse who will help get you the correct form of emergency contraception. No appointment needed. UChicago Student Wellness offers Emergency Contraception to all students. Learn more about Contraception Consultations offered at Student Wellness.
