| postcoital contraception |
Using a contraceptive after sex instead of before it, to interrupt implantation of an embryo (if there is one). Taking two birth control (oral contraceptive) pills the morning and the night after the unanticipated opportunity for pregnancy is reasonably effective, but see your physician for details to carry this out safely and effectively. This maneuver might not protect against an ectopic pregnancy.
