Interception is used by girls who had unprotected sex – for whatever reason - and want to reduce the risk of pregnancy.
If you had intercourse without using birth control or if the condom was torn, it’s not too late to prevent pregnancy: a girl does not become pregnant until 5 days after having sex. Interception works after a girl has had sex, but before she becomes pregnant.
There are two ways to do it:
1. The morning-afterpil
2. An emergency IUD
Interception should not be used as a regular form of birth control. It’s an emergency measure.
