Population Council Research that makes a difference

Abstract

Does emergency contraception promote teen sex? 
Raine,Tina; Weiss,Deborah C.
Contemporary OB/GYN 50(9): 60-68
Publication date: 2005



The scientific evidence to date--including the authors' recent RCT--says no. Were EC to be available over-the-counter, it would not encourage risky sex nor increase rates of STI.
