If you are or think you are facing an unintended pregnancy, it is important that you talk about your feelings and emotions with someone you trust, be that a family member; a grandmother, aunt, or uncle; a close friend; or a member of the clergy. It is also important that you consult a member of the medical profession to discuss your options and what would be best for you and your health.

The Massachusetts EC Network does not provide medical services. Instead, we work to educate health care providers, pharmacists, and the public about EC.

The Massachusetts EC Network does, however, work in close partnership with several organizations that do represent doctors and family planning clinics and these organizations can help you decide what is best for you.

For information and counseling on pregnancy and family planning, please contact the organizations below. They can help you find someone in your community who can help you make the decision that is right for you.
