Unintended pregnancy is an important public health issue in developing countries because of its association with adverse social and health outcomes. Emergency Contraception (EC) is a safe and effective way to prevent unplanned pregnancy. Knowledge, attitude and practice on emergency contraception are particularly important because of high rates of unwanted and teenage pregnancy. Emergency contraception gives a woman the last opportunity to protect herself from an otherwise unprotected intercourse; it has the potential to achieve the goal of -"all pregnancies should be wanted."
