Many women in the U.S. are experiencing anxiety and uncertainty about their ability to manage and make decisions about their reproductive health and the healthcare options available to them today. That's why it's so important to ensure all women have access to contraception and education to help prevent unintended pregnancies and support their autonomy. Dr. Ali Rodriguez, MD, OB-GYN, joined us to fill us in on some options and where to find them.
As always, condoms are effective and widely found at local drug, grocery, and convenience stores. They also have the benefit of helping to prevent the transmission of STIs and give longer-acting contraception backup.
Cadence OTC has made it easier for couples to access Morning After Pill 24/7 at neighborhood convenience stores like 7-Eleven and Circle K so they can get emergency contraception right away after an "oops" moment without even having to wait until morning. It is called "emergency contraception" because it is time-sensitive. While it must be taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex, the sooner you take it, the better it works.
The Morning After Pill does not interfere with future fertility, regular birth control, or stop a current pregnancy. It prevents pregnancy completely by stopping the egg from meeting the sperm or adhering to the womb.
